Strain Rate Dependence in Steady, Plastic Shock Waves

摘要

The shock wave profile data of Barker for Al fits the empirical equation epsilon/sub m/ = kp/sub D/ exp 4 (epsilon/sub m/ = max abs strain rate in plastic wave, P/sub D/ = impact pressure). This note is a brief summary of further attempts to understand the constitutive implications of the above equation for the broader class of materials. (ERA citation 10:039521)
