Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of deformation and fracture characteristic measurement of materials under dynamic loading, and in particular to an annular sample expansion loading method based on instantaneous expansion and cracking. Background Art

[0002] The deformation and fracture characteristics of materials under dynamic loading have important research value in the fields of industry, military, and national defense. Among them, the expansion ring experimental technology, as an important means to study the dynamic tensile properties and fracture behavior of materials, has attracted much attention because it can achieve uniform one-dimensional tensile stress. At present, explosive expansion rings and electromagnetic expansion rings are the most widely used technologies. Many scholars have used these two technologies to study the dynamic mechanism under quasi-one-dimensional stress state, but both have certain technical limitations.

[0003] The explosive expansion ring experimental device detonates the central charge and uses the pressure of the explosion product to drive the sample ring to expand at a high speed. During the expansion process, stress wave reflection and tensile unloading wave cause the sample ring to enter the free expansion stage. The advantages of this method include: small sample size restrictions; high strain rate can be achieved; the temperature rise of the ring during loading is not significant. However, this method also has obvious disadvantages: shock waves, rarefaction waves and lateral effects are inevitably generated during loading, making it difficult to fully achieve a one-dimensional tensile stress state; the impedance of the driver and the sample ring material does not match, affecting the stability of the experimental results; the device processing and operation requirements are high, and the experimental safety is low.

[0004] The electromagnetic expansion ring experimental device uses a solenoid to generate a strong magnetic field and drives the sample ring to expand through the Lorentz force. The advantages of this method are: the Lorentz force acts evenly on the sample ring, avoiding the wave effect caused by mechanical loading; the expansion speed and strain rate of the sample ring can be accurately controlled by adjusting the circuit parameters; and it is simpler to measure the flow stress, plastic strain and strain rate history. However, the electromagnetic expansion ring also has shortcomings: the loading strain rate is low and the size of the sample ring is limited; the high current causes a significant temperature rise in the sample ring, affecting the accuracy of the dynamic performance test.

[0005] This shows that the prior art needs to be further improved. Summary of the invention

In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0040] The technical solution of the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0041] The working principle of the loading system of the present invention is as follows: the high-pressure gas generated by the instantaneous burster is used to drive the airbag body 301 to expand rapidly in the radial direction, thereby squeezing the annular sample 6 to achieve high strain rate loading.

[0042] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the loading system of the present invention comprises a test frame 1, an instantaneous bursting cylinder device 2, an inflatable airbag 3, an initiating device 4, an annular specimen 6 and a bursting agent 7.

[0043] The test frame 1 is composed of four upper and lower cross beams 102 and four columns 101 therebetween, so as to form a stable support, and the test frame 1 is used to carry the instantaneous bursting cylinder device 2. The cross beam 102 at the top is connected to the outer wall 202 of the first cylinder body, and the cross beam 102 at the bottom is connected to the outer wall 204 of the second cylinder body through a hinge, and the two are connected in the same way to ensure the symmetry and stability of the device.

[0044] The instant bursting cylinder device 2 is located in the test frame 1. Specifically, the instant bursting cylinder device 2 includes a cylinder body, a first cylinder plug 201 and a second cylinder plug 206. The cylinder body is divided into two parts, namely, a first cylinder body located at the top and a second cylinder body located at the bottom. The first cylinder body includes an outer wall 202 of the first cylinder body and an internal cavity 203 of the first cylinder body. The second cylinder body includes an outer wall 204 of the second cylinder body and an internal cavity 205 of the second cylinder body.

[0045] Two limit plates extending outward are arranged at the positions opposite to the first cylinder body and the second cylinder body, and the two limit plates are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the cylinder body. That is, when the first cylinder body and the second cylinder body are located opposite to each other, the cavity formed by the two limit plates can limit the raised portion of the inflatable airbag body 3.

[0046] The first cylinder plug 201 and the second cylinder plug 206 are respectively installed on the first cylinder body and the second cylinder body. Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, an inflatable airbag body 3 is arranged in the internal cavity of the cylinder body, and the inflatable airbag body 3 includes an airbag body 301. Outward protrusions are arranged on both sides of the airbag body 301, and the two protrusions are symmetrical with respect to the central axis of the airbag body 301. When gas is injected into the airbag body 301, the protrusions on both sides are just located in the two limit plates, and the annular sample 6 is tightly mounted on the two protrusions.

[0047] The airbag body 301 is provided with an inflation valve 302, which is connected to an inflation device 303 through an air pipe 304. The airbag body 301 is inflated with gas through the inflation device 303, and inflation is stopped when the pressure reaches 240-250 kPa. The inflation device 303 can achieve uniform inflation and automatically stop when the air pressure reaches a set value, thereby accurately controlling the expansion speed of the airbag body 301.

[0048] The bursting agent 7 includes rice husk / coal gangue and combustion aid, and the bursting agent 7 is arranged in the first cylinder body and the second cylinder body, and the bursting agent 7 is connected to the detonator 4. The detonator 4 is used to start the current excitation of the bursting agent 7, and the detonator 4 includes a detonator 401, a lead and an initiating head, and the lead is used to connect the initiating head and the detonator 401. The lead includes a first lead 402, a second lead 403, a third lead 404, a fourth lead 405, a fifth lead 406, and a sixth lead 407. The initiating head includes a first initiating head 408 and a second initiating head 409. The bursting agent 7 located in the first cylinder body and the second cylinder body is respectively bound with the first initiating head 408 and the second initiating head 409, and is built into the cylinder body and excited by current.

[0049] The shape of the ring sample 6 is as follows Figure 5 As shown, the annular sample 6 is made of brittle materials such as metal, resin or glass, and is subjected to high strain rate loading under the expansion of the airbag body 301 .

[0050] Rice husks or coal gangue are both in granular form. When the initiator head is triggered by electric current, high-temperature gas is instantly generated and the pressure in the cylinder body is increased sharply, thereby instantly expanding the inflatable airbag 3 and then loading the annular sample 6.

[0051] The internal cavity volume of the cylinder body is a fixed value. By adjusting the content of the bursting agent 7, the air pressure value can be changed to obtain different strain rates.

[0052] The present invention proposes an expansion loading method for an annular sample based on instantaneous bursting, which utilizes the above-mentioned loading system and includes the following steps: Step 1, fix the annular sample 6 on the periphery of the raised portion of the airbag body 301, and the inflation device 303 inflates the airbag body 301 through the air pipe 304 and the inflation valve 302. When the pressure reaches 240-250 kPa, stop the inflation.

[0053] Step 2: Place the bursting agent 7 into the internal cavity 203 of the first cylinder body and the internal cavity 205 of the second cylinder body. The bursting agent 7 is bundled together with the first initiating head 408 and the second initiating head 409, and is connected to the third lead 404 and the fifth lead 406 through the first lead 402. Another set of second leads 403 is connected to the fourth lead 405 and the sixth lead 407.

[0054] Step 3: Check whether the circuits of all leads are short-circuited or open-circuited to ensure that the circuits are connected normally. After checking that the circuits are correct, press the switch of the detonator 401 to complete the detonation operation. The bursting agent 7 is excited by the current and changes from solid to gas in 0.05 to 0.5 seconds, and generates pressure to drive the airbag body 301 to expand, thereby loading the annular sample 6.

[0055] Step 4: Calculate the annular stress of the annular specimen 6 using formula (1). Formula (1) is derived from (2), (3), and (4).
