Modelling the Shock Response of Polycrystals at the Mesoscale
Abstract
Simulation of the shock compression of a copper polycrystal at the mesoscale has been carried out using a Discrete Element code. Grains were aligned in three crystal orientations with respect to the shock direction; <100>, <110>, and <111>. The polycrystal had an average grain diameter of 14{mu}m and was impacted by a single crystal of copper at 200m/s. Results show the presence of a Particle Velocity Dispersion which attains its maximum magnitude of 8m/s at the plastic wave rise, and which is quantitatively of the same order as experimentally observed values. Non-planar elastic and plastic wave fronts are present. The shock front position distribution increases with propagation distance until its standard deviation is 0.4{mu}m at a propagation distance of 80{mu}m.
