Description

The paper presents the technique of study of aluminum composite K1d crack resistance at shock loading at T=-50 divide 300 deg. C. The technique is based on application of split Hopkinson bars and plane specimen for axial wedging. Heating of specimens was carried out by electric heater, cooling--by vapours of liquid nitrogen. Specimens from aluminum composite A 359 (20 vol. % SiC) of the firm DURAL were tested. K1d values were obtained at mentioned temperatures in the interval of loading rates K1=(0.1-0.28)·106 MPa·m12s-1
