Name _______________________________ CHE 3260 Spring, 2021 1) One scenario that has been examined in the failure investigation of the Space Shuttle Columbia is the impact of a chunk of polyamide foam of mass of 1.211 kg, of dimensions of 0.508 m wide x 0.406 m long x 0.152 m tall, traveling at 457.3 m/s with a thermal heat-shielding tile, essentially composed of silica (SiO2). A) (4 pts.) Calculate the kinetic energy with which the polyamide foam hit the silica tile. B) (7 pts.) Use your textbook to determine silica's modulus of elasticity (E), the yield stress (YS), the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), percent elongation (the amount of strain multiplied by 100%) at failure, the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and the fracture toughness (also known as the critical stress-intensity factor). Use SI units. Assume the worst case. C) (6 pts.) Assume the ultimate compressive strength is equal to the ultimate tensile strength. Sketch the stress-strain curve for silica along with the YS, UCS, MOE, RS, and the strain at the yield stress and the strain at failure. D) (7 pts.) Assume that the silica is highly efficient at transferring the load from the point of impact and distributing the load equally over the whole tile (Cross-sectional area = .005 m2 with a thickness of 0.05 m). Calculate the amount of energy in Joules that a silica tile would be capable of absorbing without plastically deforming. E) (1 pt.) Comparing your results of parts D and A, would the silica tile elastically absorb the impact? F) (4 pts.) Compute the amount of plastic deformation that the silica tile can absorb.

Would you be safe using a shuttle tile with a 1 mm crack in it? Provide a brief explanation using some of the quantities you have either looked up or have calculated. 2) (10 pts.) An ion gauge with a glass/metal interface (see photo) is heated under vacuum. The interface heats up such that the glass side (“Glass, borosilicate (Pyrex)” in the accompanying tables) heats up from 298 K to 340 K, but the annealed “Super Invar” (under Miscellaneous Nonferrous Alloys” heats up only to 310 K.

1) One scenario that has been examined in the failure investigation of the Space Shuttle Columbia is the impact
of a chunk of polyamide foam of mass of 1.211 kg of dimensions of 0.508 m wide x 0.406 m long x 0.152 m
tall, traveling at 457.3 m/s with a thermal heat-shielding tile, essentially composed of silica (SiO2).
A) (4 pts.) Calculate the kinetic energy with which the polyamide foam hit the silica tile.
KE=0.5mv2=0.5*1.211*457.3*457.3
=126.62KJ

B) (7 pts.) Use your textbook to determine silica's modulus of elasticity (E), the yield stress (YS), the
ultimate tensile strength (UTS), percent elongation (the amount of strain multiplied by 100%) at
failure, the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and the fracture toughness (also known as the
critical stress-intensity factor). Use SI units. Assume the worst case.
E: 73Gpa
YS: 45MPa ( can be from 40-100MPa)(from literature)
UTS: 105MPa (can be from 80-140Mpa)
Elongation at failure:
CTE: 0.4*10-6/K
Fracture toughness: 0.79 MPa.m1/2
C) (6 pts.) Assume the ultimate compressive strength is equal to the ultimate tensile strength. Sketch the
stress-strain curve for silica along with the YS, UCS, MOE, RS, and the strain at the yield stress
and the strain at failure.

If the material is perfectly brittle then UCS, RS and YS will coincide (There can slight plastic deformation
observed which is shown in figure)
D) (7 pts.) Assume that the silica is highly efficient at transferring the load from the point of
impact and distributing the load equally over the whole tile (Cross-sectional area = .005 m2 with a
thickness of 0.05 m). Calculate the amount of energy in Joules that a silica tile would be capable
of absorbing without plastically deforming.
Before plastic deformation, the area under the stress strain curve gives the energy/unit volume
Energy/Volume=0.5*Yield stress*yield strain=0.5*YS2/E
=13.86KJ/m3
Energy that can be absorbed by a tile :15.27*.005*.05=3.467J

E) (1 pt.) Comparing your results of parts D and A, would the silica tile elastically absorb the impact?
No, since the amount of energy that can be absorbed elastically is smaller than the impact energy. So
either fracture can occur or plastic deformation followed by fracture.
F) (4 pts.) Compute the amount of plastic deformation that the silica tile can absorb.
Assume silica shows linear plastic deformation, then the energy that silica can absorb by plastic
deformation is area under stress strain curve in plastic region.(=0.5*(UTS-YS)*plastic
starin+YS*plastic strain)*volume=18750*plastic strain=15.4J (if we assume plastic strain=(UTS-YS)/E)
If we assume linear plastic deformation and it has same slope of elastic, then
This will be equal to the overall impact energy-elastic energy absorbed

G) (4 pts.) If the silica has a 1 mm crack from a previous incident, given the numbers from part
B, and assuming Y = 1, calculate the maximum amount of stress that the tile could take now.
Would you be safe using a shuttle tile with a 1 mm crack in it? Provide a brief explanation using
some of the quantities you have either looked up or have calculated.
Kc=σ(πa)1/2 assume the crack is at the surface (worst case), then a=1mm;
Kc=0.79Mpa(given in property chart)= σ*(3.14*.001)1/2=0.056 σ
So, the stress required to fracture is 14.09Mpa. (critical stress above which the material will fail)
Because of this crack, the material will fracture at very low stress of 14.09Mpa

2) (10 pts.) An ion gauge with a glass/metal interface (see photo) is heated under vacuum. The interface
heats up such that the glass side (“Glass, borosilicate (Pyrex)” in the accompanying tables) heats up from
298 K to 340 K, but the annealed “Super Invar” (under Miscellaneous Nonferrous Alloys” heats up only to
310 K. Using Appendix B, determine a) the strain that the glass experiences, b) the strain that the Super
Invar metal experiences, and c) the difference in strain (the strain across the interface between the two
materials. Do either the glass or the metal experience enough strain to be plastically deformed? Do either
the glass or the metal experience enough strain such that the glass/metal interface breaks?

a) Coefficient of thermal expansion α of gl...
