Therefore, a steel-layered structure with different contact areas is developed as a stress wave attenuator to protect the fluid oscillator for the DTH hammer under high-temperature drilling conditions. In this paper, the stress wave attenuation...

... mechanical properties. The recent research in material science and metallurgy pushed toward the development of novel ductile titanium alloys such as Ti0.7Al4V and Ti1Al4V [ 3 – 5 ] for impact containment applications, among others. It is thus envisaged that reduced strength and increased ductility...

...Hyunho Shin A process of calibrating a one-dimensional sound speed (c o ) and Poisson’s ratio (ν) of a (split) Hopkinson bar is presented. This process consists of Fourier synthesis and iterative dispersion correction (time-domain phase shift) of the elastic pulse generated by the striker impact...

The ballistic limit velocities from tests at low temperatures were higher than the ballistic limit velocities from tests at room temperature...

...S. Pant; S. Tamboli; S. N. Khaderi A common method of generating a tensile wave in Split-Hopkinson bar experiments is to impact a hollow striker on an anvil/collar attached to the incident bar. When the anvil/collar is attached to the incident bar using screw threads, the incident signals usually...

...Jasper Lienhard; David Veysset; Keith A. Nelson; Christopher A. Schuh At sufficiently high velocities, a microparticle impacting a metal substrate can cause ejection of material from the substrate and impact-induced melting, both of which can result in erosion. Here, we directly image the impact...
