Primary and Reflected Compaction Waves in a Foam Rod Due to an Axial Impact by a Small Mass
AbstractThe propagation of compaction waves in a stationary foam block subjected to an impact by a small mass is studied in order to examine the mechanism of compaction within the primary and reflected stress waves. The analysis is focused on aluminium strain rate insensitive foam that exhibits stra...
