Advances in Experimental Impact Mechanics

Summarizing the latest advances in experimental impact mechanics, this book provides cutting-edge techniques and methods for designing, executing, analyzing, and interpreting the results of experiments involving the dynamic responses of materials and structures. It provides tailored guidelines and solutions for specific applications and materials, covering topics such as dynamic characterization of metallic materials, fiber-like materials, low-impedance materials, concrete and more. Damage evolution and constitutive behavior of materials under impact loading, one-dimensional strain loading, intermediate and high strain rates, and other environmental conditions are discussed, as are techniques using high temperature testing and miniature Kolsky bars.
