Dynamic Damage and Fragmentation
Lambert, David Edward / Pasiliao, Crystal L / Erzar, Benjamin / Revil-Baudard, Benoit / Cazacu, Oana Engineering structures may be subjected to extreme high-rate loading conditions, like those associated with natural disasters (earthquakes, tsunamis, rock falls, etc.) or those of anthropic origin (impacts, fluid-structure interactions, shock wave transmissions, etc.). Characterization and modeling of the mechanical behavior of materials under these environments is important in predicting the response of structures and improving designs. This ...
