Title: Work-hardening and effective viscosity in solid beryllium

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5626568

Results from Hopkinson split-bar, plate-impact, and cylinder deceleration experiments on beryllium are compared with hydrodynamic computer code simulations. By substantially increasing the beryllium work-hardening in the Steinberg-Guinan constitutive model, excellent agreement between the experiments and the calculations is achieved. A model to estimate effective viscosity is also proposed and the resultant calculations are in reasonable agreement with those derived from another model advanced by Asay, Chhabildas and Wise. 12 refs., 5 figs.
