Abstract
This paper examines the effect of strain rates for
computations involving high strain-rates, beyond 103 s - 1.
Although it is generally agreed that there is an enhanced rate effect at
these higher rates, there is uncertainty regarding the interpretation of
dynamic test data, the form of the high-rate effect, and the effect of the
high rates on practical problems of interest. This article provides an
assessment of the high-rate effect for Taylor (cylinder impact) tests, a
determination of high-rate constitutive model constants from the Taylor
tests, and the effect of the high-rate response on penetration computations.
The computations are performed with the Johnson-Cook constitutive model and
an enhanced (high-rate) form of the Johnson-Cook model.
