Experimental analysis and modelling of the strain-rate sensitivity of sheet niobium

The niobium is currently used for the construction of the superconducting radio frequency (RF) Crab Cavity for the particle accelerator LHC at CERN in Geneva. An alternative technique to traditional forming methods is the electrohydraulic forming (EHF), in which ultrahigh-speed deformation of blank...
