An Experimental Investigation of Large-Amplitude Wave Propagation and Dynamic Elastic Properties in Longitudinally-Impacted Polycarbonate Rods.

Abstract

Engineering materials have long been known to exhibit marked differences in their mechanical behavior under conditions of impact and high rates of loading as compared to their behavior under quasi-static loading conditions.. Thus, the proper utilization of these materials in dynamic environments requires a knowledge of their behavior under dynamic conditions.
