RESUMO

Abstract A series of dynamic tests were conducted on a closed-cell aluminum alloy foams in order to determine experimental failure surface under impact loading conditions. Quasi-static tests have also been performed to investigate failure mechanism under different stress paths. Three typical types of deformation modes can be observed, which corresponds to the different failure mechanism. The failure loci of the foam in principal stress plane are explored from quasi-static to dynamic loading conditions. A significant strength enhancement is identified experimentally. The expansion of the failure locus from the quasi-static to the dynamic test is almost isotropic. A modified failure criterion for the metallic foam is proposed to predict failure locus as a function of strain rate. This rate-dependence failure criterion is capable of giving a good description of the biaxial failure stresses over a wide range of the strain rates.
