The Influence of Microstructure on the Plasticity of Metals and Alloys.

Abstract

Four materials; OFHC copper, aluminum-copper eutectic (8.3 wt % Al) alloy, lead-tin eutectic and aluminum-zinc eutectoid (.78 wt % zinc) were tested in three different tests at a range of loading rates. The first constrained at the base. The second test was a closed die extrusion of a cylindrical specimen. The third test was the impact of an unconstrained cylindrical specimen between flat-faced cylindrical rams. The peak loading rate from .006 ft/sec to 650 ft/sec.
