Engineering Research Equipment: High Speed Infra Red Radiation Detector System for Use in Thermographic Measurements in Dynamically Deforming Advanced Materials

这项研究设备拨款将由特拉华大学机械工程系用于购买高速红外辐射探测器系统，以测量聚合物基复合材料、陶瓷和陶瓷复合材料动态变形过程中的温升。计划测量这些先进材料在动态变形和断裂过程中产生的温度场。对这些材料的损伤和热效应之间的耦合进行全面研究的结果，对于制定具有物理意义和精确的先进材料和复合材料的热机械损伤模型是必要的。这是材料性能的一个重要方面，值得仔细研究，特别是在先进材料中。该设备将用于几个当前的研究项目，也将可供大学的其他教师使用。* * *

9622241 Lambros This Research Equipment Grant will be used by the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Delaware to purchase a high speed infra red radiation detector system to measure the temperature increase during dynamic deformation of polymer matrix composites, ceramics and ceramic composites. It is planned to measure the temperature fields generated during dynamic deformation and fracture of these advanced materials. The results of a complete study of the coupling between damage and thermal effects in these materials is needed for the formulation of physically meaningful and accurate thermomechanical damage models for advanced materials and composites. This is an important aspect of material behavior which deserves careful study, especially in advanced materials. This equipment will be used in several current research projects and will also be available for use by other faculty at the University. ***
