In this study, the occurrence of the adiabatic shear bands in AISI 4340 steel under high velocity impact loading was investigated using finite element analysis and experimental tests. The cylindrical specimen subjected to the impact load was divided into different regions separated by nodes using finite element method in ABAQUS environment with boundary conditions specified. The material properties were assumed to be lower in the region where the probability of strain localization is high based on prior experimental results in order to initialize the formation of the adiabatic shear bands. The finite element model was used to determine the maximum flow stress, the strain hardening, the thermal softening, and the time to reach the critical strain for the formation of adiabatic shear bands. Experimental results show that deformed bands were formed at low strain rates and there was a minimum strain rate required for the formation of the transformed band in the alloy and the cracks were initiated and propagated along the transformed bands leading to fragmentation under the impact loading. The susceptibility of the adiabatic shear bands to cracking was markedly influenced by the strain-rates and the initial material microstructure. The simulation results obtained were compared with the experimental results obtained from the AISI 4340 steel under high strain-rate loading in compression using split impact Hopkinson bars. A good agreement between the experimental and simulation results was obtained.
