Strain Rate Effect on Mechanical Yong Tao LTCS, Behavior of Metallic College of Engineering, Peking University, Honeycombs Under Out-of-Plane Beijing 100871, China Mingji Chen1 Dynamic Compression National Center for Nanoscience and Technology, Beijing 100190, China Although many researches on the dynamic behavior of honeycombs have been reported, e-mail: mjchen81@ the strain rate effect of parent materials was frequently neglected, giving rise to the underestimated plateau stress and energy absorption EA . In this paper, the strain rate Yongmao Pei effect of parent materials on the out-of-plane dynamic compression and EA of metallic honeycombs is evaluated by both numerical simulation and theoretical analysis. The LTCS, numerical results show that the plateau stress and the EA increase signi?cantly if the College of Engineering, strain rate effect is considered. To account for the strain rate effect, a new theoretical Peking University, model to evaluate the dynamic compressive plateau stress of metallic honeycombs is pro- Beijing 100871, China posed by introducing the Cowper–Symonds relation into the shock theory. Predictions of Daining Fang the present model agree fairly well with the numerical results and existing experimental data. Based on the present model, the plateau stress is divided into three terms, namely LTCS, static term, strain rate term, and inertia term, and thus the in?uences of each term can be College of Engineering, analyzed quantitatively. According to the analysis, strain rate effect is much more important Peking University, than inertia effect over a very wide range of impact velocity.
