Investigations of the Material Factors in the Adiabatic Shearing of Steels

Abstract

The goal of the program was the further define the materials factors controlling the susceptibility of steels to adiabatic shear strain localization. A variety of steels were impacted with projectiles having a flat-bottomed cylindrical step on the impacting end. The materials examined included: Armco Iron, Ti-gettered high purity iron, AISI 1018, AISI 1040, 2 1/4 Cr-1 Mo chemical reactor steel, a dual phase steel, H26 Tool steel, Hadfield's austenitic manganese steel, 304 and 310 stainless steels.
