Changes in material characteristics of AISI 430 stainless steel plates subjected to repeated blast loading

Structures deform at high strain rates and temperatures when exposed to impulsive loads. To accommodate the macro change there are microstructural changes that occur, i.e., grain morphology and shear banding. Most studies report on macroscopic response, i.e., large inelastic deformation and tearing...
