IMPACT ON RODS OF NON-LINEAR VISCOPLASTIC MATERIAL NUMERICAL AND APPROXIMATE SOLUTIONS

Abstract

A numerical technique is described for the solution of impact on finite rods in which the strain rate is assumed to be a function of stress and strain. Examples are given for the strain rate function taken as a power of the dynamic overstress and the results are compared with available analytic solutions and approximate uniform strain theory.
