Description

Hot isostatically pressed (HIPed) Ti-6Al-4V powder based targets (including composites) have a good ballistic performance against long rod, conical and flat projectiles impact (velocity range ∼ 0.4 - 1km/s). Compared to baseline material (MIL-T-9047G), new features such as different shape of craters in long rod penetration tests were observed. The results of compression Hopkinson bar tests, cut from tested targets (final strain controlled tests and hat-shaped specimen tests) are presented with a goal to establish relations between ballistic performance and high strain rate properties of HIPed materials
