Abstract:

A thorough summary of the literature treating strain-rate behavior in metals, 1948-1965, is given. Attempts to apply these theories and results to specific problems to be solved on a computer are discussed. A proposed qualitative description of the behavior of metals under dynamic loading is also presented.
