| Abstract Scope |
In this study, a dynamic behavior of Ti6Al4V ELI under high pressure shock waves was investigated. High energy 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser was used to induce a shock wave onto Ti6Al4V ELI specimens with thicknesses ranging from 0.25 to 0.5 mm. The shock wave velocity was measured using the VISAR Interferometer with the intention of analyzing the dynamic behavior of Ti6Al4V ELI. There are no studies reporting on shock wave induced by lasers that are studied using VISAR Interferometer on Ti6Al4V ELI; hence the relevance of this current study. The results show that the impact velocity increased with the decrease in sample thickness. In addition the thinner sample deformed easier than the thick sample. This is in agreement with Hugoniot Elastic Limit. |
