| Abstract Scope |
Dynamic mechanical properties of multiphase metal composites comprising dissimilar immiscible phases can be controlled through selection of constituents, processing routes and phase topologies. This talk will focus on the quasi-static and dynamic mechanical behavior of a commercial model material made of 58 vol% W and 42 vol% Cu. This composite is of interest because both constituents exist in significant fractions and exhibit highly dissimilar properties (CTE, density, yield stress, elastic modulus, crystal structure). The co-continuous nature of the phases adds further complexity to composite response. Here, finite element simulations and experiments will be used to inform our understanding of the mechanical behavior of co-continuous structures. |
