Effects of grain size on the spallation behavior of pure copper under plate-impact loading

The effects of grain size on the dynamic tensile fracture (or spall) response were investigated for high purity copper materials by plate-impact experiments. The spall strength estimated from the free surface velocity profile is nearly constant with no significant effect from the grain size. However...
