The mechanical properties of ultra-strong polyethylene fibers of Spectra type exhibit very large strainrate effects. The modulus and strength of these fibers increases with increasing strain-rate. In ballistic impacts involving high deformation rates, the performance of Spectra fiber composites is, therefore, markedly better than predicted on the basis of data obtained at low deformation rate standard testing procedures. To prevent aircraft disasters caused by explosions in the luggage compartments, the Federal Aviation Agency initiated a program to develop an explosion blast-proof luggage container. Based on previous work, Spectra fibers produced by Allied Signal were an obvious choice for this application. The scope of the present study was to determine the deformation rates in a fiber reinforced composite wall of an aircraft luggage container. The simulated blast corresponded to the explosion of a typical terrorist device. |
