- Abstract
- Compressive behavior of closed-cell aluminum alloy foams at strain rates of 10−3–450 s−1 has been studied experimentally. The fully stress–strain curves of specimens at medium strain rates were obtained using the High Rate Instron Test System, which can maintain a constant loading rate. The experimental results show that plateau stress and energy absorption capacity are remarkable dependent on strain rate, while the densification strain has a negligible dependence.
