Abstract

The Pulse-Heated Kolsky Bar Laboratory at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been developed for the measurement of dynamic properties of metals. Because high-speed machining processes can lead to extremely rapid heating of a material, followed by rapid cooling, our research program has been directed in part at studying the influence on flow stress of the heating rate and the time-at-temperature prior to impact in rapid compression tests on car-bon steels. The unique pulse heating capability of the NIST Kolsky bar system enables rapid uni-form pre-heating of an experimental test sample from room temperature to several hundred de-grees C in less than a second, prior to a Kolsky bar test. We present new results on AISI 1075 steel, which demonstrate constitutive response behavior that cannot be predicted by the Johnson-Cook flow stress model that is widely used in simulations of high-speed machining processes.
