| Research Abstract |
Porous materials have a potential for absorbing impact energy during the crashing of a vehicle either against another vehicle or a pedestrian, since the class of materials exhibits an extended stress plateau. Accurate evaluation of flow stress is noted to be important to develop a suitable absorber. In this study, compressive response was characterized under dynamic loading by using a split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). High speed imaging with the sampling time of 1~4 us was applied for the characterization of acrylic resin cube with or without perforations. The deformation behavior was monitored with shadowgraph imaging. The effect of existing perforations was co-related with the mechanical response of the polymer cube evaluated by the SHPB with three stress waves. The captured image revealed that the heterogeneous distribution of strain changed to homogeneous with deformation progress. As a result, the effect of geometrical imperfection on the dynamic response was characterized.
