Abstract

The ultrasonic attenuation coefficient is sensitive to the internal constituent components of the material, and the effective entry of ultrasonic waves into the material is of great significance for the development of non-destructive testing. In this paper, based on DIGIMAT/FE, a mesoscopic model of materials is built, covering two phases of explosive particles and binder, using ABAQUS/EXPLICT to load ultrasonic loading of materials, extracting internal unit stress-time curves and stress wave propagation clouds, and establishing the relationship between the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient of the bonded explosive and the different mass ratio of the explosive particles. Taking the RDX/Estane composite adhesive as an example, the volume fraction of explosive particles RDX and the influence of ultrasonic frequency on the sound attenuation coefficient were studied. The numerical simulation results of the model were compared with the real experimental data to verify the validity of the model. This numerical model method can effectively guide the acoustic experimental process of the material and provide a theoretical basis for the non-destructive testing of materials.
