Testing and Modeling of Polymers: High Rate and Traditional Testing
Design engineers often use polymers in impact protection applications, and these designs experience high strain rates during impact. Polymers are viscoplastic by nature, so the material response is highly dependent on the strain rate. Collecting data on your polymer (elastomer, thermo
