Abstract

Intermetallics are receiving increasing attention for applications requiring high-leverage materials possessing potentially high pay-offs such as in gas-turbine engines. While the quasistatic deformation response of a broad range of intermetallics is receiving intense scientific and engineering study increased utilization of intermetallics under dynamic loading requires an understanding of their high-rate shock-wave behavior. In this paper the influence of shock loading on the structure/property behavior of Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb and Ti-24Al-11Nb is presented. The reload constitutive response of both shock-loaded intermetallics supports the dynamic deformation of both intermetallics being controlled by a Peierls mechanism. Defect generation and storage in intermetallics is compared and contrasted to that typical to conventional disordered metals and alloys.
