FINITE AMPLITUDE WAVE PROPAGATION IN SOLIDS.
Abstract
The purpose of this final report is to trace the main threads of thought and to record the major accomplishments which relate to the dynamic and quasi-static plasticity research for the nearly a decade in which the Army Research Office grant and contract made these studies possible. The result of this systematic experimental program provides the fundamental basis for an approach to a theory of plasticity of metals based upon a generalized, parabolic, linearly temperature - dependent constitutive equation which is now well established as applicable to the tension, compression, torsion, mixed tension and torsion, and two-dimensional compression of a very large number of metals over the entire temperature scale and independent of strain rate.
