Strain rate effects on the deformation behaviour and fracture mode of recycled aluminium alloys reinforced alumina oxide

In recent years, reinforcement with alumina oxide (Al2O3) has been considered to enhance the mechanical characteristics of recycled aluminium alloys. However, there is no established information on the deformation behaviour of such recycled material when subjected to various loading conditions, i...

Strain rate effects on the deformation behaviour and fracture mode of recycled aluminium alloys reinforced alumina oxide
description In recent years, reinforcement with alumina oxide (Al2O3) has been considered to enhance the mechanical characteristics of recycled aluminium alloys. However, there is no established information on the deformation behaviour of such recycled material when subjected to various loading conditions, including damage progression. In addition, minimal efforts were conducted to develop numerical modeling to predict the deformation behaviour. Based on this motivation, a hybrid experimental-numerical approach is used in this research project. A hot press forging method is used to produce the specimen. The deformation behaviour, including damage progression of recycled AA6061 reinforced alumina oxide was investigated using the uniaxial tensile test at different strain rates (6×10-3 – 6×10-1 s-1) and the Taylor cylinder impact test at impact velocity ranging from 190 m/s – 370 m/s.
