Experimental Investigation of the Multi-Scale Response of Engineered and Energetic Materials During Aggressive Conditions

Abstract

The objectives of the proposed research were to develop novel multiscale experimental methodologies and demonstrate how they can be employed in quasi-static, transient dynamic loading, potentially large deformation to improve our understanding of the fundamental multiscale failure mechanisms in materials and structures. Mainly the effort is focused on developing experimental methods and study the mesoscale strain localization in energetic materials subjected to quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions.
