Dynamic Tensile Response of a Fe–49Co–2V Alloy at Various Strain Rates and Temperatures

Journal Article · · Journal of Dynamic Behavior of Materials

Soft ferromagnetic alloys are often utilized in electromagnetic applications due to their desirable magnetic properties. In support of these applications, the ferromagnetic alloys are also required to bear mechanical load under various loading and environmental conditions. In this study, a Fe–49Co–2V alloy was dynamically characterized in tension with a Kolsky tension bar and a Drop–Hopkinson bar at various strain rates and temperatures. Dynamic tensile stress–strain curves of the Fe–49Co–2V alloy were obtained at strain rates ranging from 40 to 230 s-1 and temperatures from - 100 to 100 °C. All dynamic tensile stress–strain curves exhibited an initial linear elastic response to an upper yield followed by Lüders band response and then a nearly linear work-hardening behavior. The yield strength of this material was found to be sensitive to both strain rate and temperature, whereas the hardening rate was independent of strain rate or temperature. The Fe–49Co–2V alloy exhibited a feature of brittle fracture in tension under dynamic loading with no necking being observed.
