..., and highest temperature levels (Tmin, Tmean, and Tmax) as a function of overall strain [ΔL/L0(%)] An experimental study of the mechanical and thermal responses of the material to dynamic loading in various orientations was reported in Ref. [ 27 ]. The overall strain rate is ∼310 s −1 . Here...

... materials during dynamic loading. A numerical study shows that for rate independent materials, the dynamic loading will not delay diffused necking but localized necking; for rate dependent materials, high strain rate sensitivity can significantly delay the onset of localized necking for both monolithic...
