Hyper-Elastic Impacts.

Abstract

A study was made of one-dimensional wave propagation in and above the elastic range in rods of 24T4 aluminum, 1018 steel, and copper. Theory was developed describing the waves as consisting of a front of decreasing steepness followed by a zone of inelastic slip. Strain gage measurements were used to verify the theory.
