High-Velocity Impact and Material Behavior

This cluster of papers focuses on the dynamic material behavior of various metals and alloys under extreme loading conditions, including high strain rates, ballistic impact, adiabatic shear localization, and projectile penetration. The research involves experimental techniques such as Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar testing and numerical modeling to understand the constitutive behavior, microstructural evolution, and thermomechanical response of materials subjected to dynamic deformation.
