Systematic experimental study on mechanical behavior of PVB (polyvinyl butyral) material under various loading conditions

Abstract: The mechanical behavior of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) significantly influences crashworthiness and energy mitigation abilities of windshields in terms of pedestrian safety. In this article, mechanical characteristics of PVB are experimentally studied. First, tension and compression experiments on PVB specimen are carried out under various quasi-static loading rates. Fundamental mechanism of rate-dependent behavior is investigated. Besides, dynamic tension and compression experimental data are compared to investig… Show more

“…Despite the variation, an increasing trend can be observed with strain rate. A lot lower failure stresses can be found on Liu et al's quasi-static testing results [6]. This is probably because of premature failure of PVB specimens.…”

“…Liu and Sun performed several tests at different strain rates both in tension and in compression. They then fitted the data with multiple individual material laws to cover the different rates and stress regimes [10]. Recently, Zhang et al [11] also performed high rate tests on the PVB material, reaching rates beyond 1000 s…”
