    Compressive behavior of fly ash based 3D printed syntactic foam composite
    (Elsevier B.V., 2019) Patil, B.; Bharath Kumar, B.R.; Doddamani, M.
    Syntactic foams are widely used in damage tolerance and low-density applications. In present work compressive behavior of 3D printed three-phase syntactic foams under quasi-static strain rates (0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 s?1) are investigated. Extruded filaments of High density polyethylene (HDPE) with environmentally pollutant fly ash cenospheres (0, 20, 40 and 60 vol%) are used for 3D printing. Micrography reveal that syntactic foam filament and 3D printed samples are three phase systems comprising matrix, cenosphere and porosity. Matrix porosity of about 7% makes these foams lightweight and suitable for buoyant applications. The compressive properties are extracted from the stress-strain plots. It is observed that modulus and specific modulus increases with strain rate and cenosphere content. Specific compressive strength increases with strain rate and decrease with cenosphere content. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

    Quasi-static compressive behavior of bioactive glass reinforced high density polyethylene composites
    (Elsevier B.V., 2022) Jeyachandran, P.; Bontha, S.; Bodhak, S.; Krishna Balla, V.; Doddamani, M.
    Compressive behavior of additively manufactured bioactive glass (BAG) reinforced high density polyethylene (HDPE) composites under quasi static conditions (0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 s−1 strain rates) is investigated in this work. HDPE feedstock filaments with 5, 10 and 20 wt% of bioactive glass are extruded for fused filament fabrication (FFF) based 3D printing (3DP). Compressive properties are extracted from the stress–strain plots. Elastic modulus and yield strength of the samples increase with filler addition and strain rate. Energy absorption increases with increase in strain rate and BAG content. All the samples exhibit homogeneous ductile deformation with distinct barrelling effect without any visible cracks. Deformation and energy absorption behavior of the tested samples are investigated using micrography. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
