The role of dynamic experimentation for computation analysis
In this paper a brief description of dynamic techniques commonly available for determining material property studies is presented. For many impact applications, the material generally experiences a complex loading path. In most cases, the initial loading conditions can be represented by the shock commonly referred to as the Hugoniot state. Subsequent loading or release structure, i.e., off-Hugoniot states would however be dependent on the physical processes dominating the material behavior. The credibility of the material model is tested by the accuracy of predictions of off-Hugoniot states. Experimental techniques commonly used to determine off-Hugoniot states are discussed in this survey.
