The dynamic response of hot-pressed boron carbide was studied under uniaxial and confined loading conditions using a modified compression Kolsky bar setup at strain rates of 102 – 103 s–1. The progression of damage in the prismatic specimens was captured using a high-speed camera. This...

Krimsky, Erez, Ramesh, K.T., Bratcher, M., Foster, M., Hogan, James D.
An understanding of the dynamic failure of damaged ceramics is important in protection applications, where the interaction of the projectile with cracked material is a contributing factor in the overall system performance. In this paper, we investigate the effects of pre-existing internal cracks...
