TY - JOUR A1 - Eisenacher, Germar A1 - Scheidemann, Robert A1 - Neumann, Martin A1 - Droste, Bernhard A1 - Völzke, Holger T1 - Dynamic crushing characteristics of spruce wood under large deformations N2 - An extensive series of large deformation crushing tests with spruce wood specimens was conducted. Material orientation, lateral constraint and loading rate were varied. Regarding material orientation, a reduction in the softening effect and the general force level was observed with a higher fiber-load angle. A comparison with characteristics gained by application of Hankinson's formula showed discrepancies in compression strength and the beginning of the hardening effect. Lateral constraint of the specimens caused a multiaxial stress state in the specimens, which was quantified with the applied measuring method. Further, a higher force level compared to specimens without lateral constraint and significant hardening effect at large deformations resulted. Thus, the influence of a multiaxial stress state on the force level could be determined. An increase in the loading rate led to higher force levels at any displacement value and material orientation.

A drop and crash test facility with an unyielding target and a load capacity of 1.200 kg was designed for materials testing of component size specimen under impact conditions at elevated and higher loading rates. The maximum drop height is 12 meters which enables impact velocities up to 15 m/s. An exactly falling test object or drop weight allows impact, bending, compression as well as crash and crush tests with maximum input energy of 118 kJ. An arresting unit has been developed to avoid multiple impacts during instrumented drop tests. The paper presents experimental techniques and examples of various measurement methods and advancements in order to assess assumption of materials and components behavior by definite displacement and stresses within mechanical testing. Instrumented drop weight tests are performed to complete materials data base and energy absorption of shock-absorbing materials and structures as well as to implement materials and structural parameters into FEA of reference structures. Furthermore, fracture mechanics parameters of thick walled DCI containers by means of dynamic bending tests are characterized by crack initiation and crack resistance behavior at the lowest operational temperature depending on the strain rate.

Sie bilden eine wesentliche Grundlage um für unterschiedliche Belastungsvarianten und Temperaturen zuverlässige Berechnungsergebnisse zu ermitteln, die umfangreiche experimentelle Erprobungen zumindest in Teilen ersetzen und damit einen zentralen Bestandteil von sicherheitstechnischen Nachweisen in gefahrgut- und atomrechtlichen Zulassungs- und Genehmigungsverfahren bilden können. Für die Auslegung der Behälter von besonderer Bedeutung ist die Effizienz der eingesetzten energieabsorbierenden Elemente, wie beispielsweise Stoßdämpfer am Behälterdeckel oder -boden bzw. äquivalente Strukturen auf oder im Fundament von Zwischen- und Endlagern. Diese Bauteile, die häufig aus Holz, Polyurethan (PU) - Schaum oder Dämpferbeton hergestellt werden, erfahren beim Auf- oder Anprall erhebliche plastische Deformationen, deren Verteilung und Größenordnung u.a. von der Belastungsgeschwindigkeit, dem Belastungsverlauf und der Temperatur bestimmt werden. Die Berücksichtigung dieser Faktoren in dynamischen Finite Elemente (FE) Berechnungen, die den heutigen Stand der Simulationstechnik repräsentieren, setzt eine systematische Datenbasis für den stoßdämpfenden Werkstoff voraus und die Implementierung dieser Informationen in numerischen Materialformulierungen. An der BAM wird seit Ende 2008 im Rahmen des vom BMBF geförderten Forschungsvorhabens ENREA (Entwicklung rechnerischer Analysemethoden für stoßdämpfende Strukturen beim Anprall oder Absturz von Abfallgebinden) die experimentelle Bestimmung derartiger Daten sowie die Anpassung und teilweise Neuentwicklung geeigneter Materialmodelle betrieben.

They form the basis for reliable analysis of different loading situations allowing substituting, at least in parts, experimental investigations that are needed in safety Reports submitted for nuclear licensing procedures. Hereby, the efficiency of the energy absorbing components, such as cask Impact limiters or equivalent structures placed onto or into the foundation of storage buildings, determine to a large extend the performance and thus the design of the casks. The limiters, which are usually made of wood, polyurethane foam (PUF) or damping concrete, are subjected to Major plastic deformations, whose Distribution and magnitude strongly depend on loading speed, course and temperature. Consequently, it is necessary to establish a systematic data basis and implement this information in advanced numerical material formulations in Order to enable finite element simulations to account for all relevant factors.

To minimize potential damages during the handling of casks, a so called damping concrete is frequently used for the footings in interim nuclear facilities. It obtains its shock absorbing properties through admixing of polymer cells. For a comprehensive mechanical evaluation of casks, advanced material models are also needed for damping concrete. In order to characterize the mechanical properties and to develop numerical material models, penetration tests were carried out at different test facilities of BAM. The tests contain static and dynamic penetration tests on cubic specimen with an edge length of 100 mm as well as mortared specimen with a size of 240 x 240 x 50 cm³. Indenters with different geometries and diameters were used for these model-sized penetration tests. Subsequently a full-scale cylindrical cast-iron indenter with a diameter of 110 cm was dropped of 5 m height on a realistic damping concrete footing.
