Mechanical properties at high strain-rate of lead core and brass jacket of a NATO 7.62 mm ball bullet

Numerical simulations are now an actual option in order to try to reproduce and understand the mechanical response in components subjected to extreme loading conditions, like in a ballistic impact. A correct materials calibration is therefore necessary in order to extract the materials parameters. I...
