High Strain Rate Induced Plasticity - increasing of Metallic Materials under Tension

摘要

The effect of strain rate on plasticity has been Investigat-ed for three metallic materials with dynamic tension tech-nique. A phenomenon of high strain induced plasticity -increasing was found for tested materials. The elongation of quenched 30CrMnSiNi2A is 14. 5% under 40 m/s loading rate which is more than two times of the 7 % un-der 0. 5 mm/min. This typic high strain rate induced plasticity - Increasing phenomenon is associated with adiabatic heating, strain twinning and suppression of strain - induced - phase transformation.
