Title: Constitutive relation for 6061T6 aluminum under shock loading conditions

Conference ·

We publish for the first time a constitutive relation of Wallace and Straub based on plastic flow data extracted from 6061T6 Al shocks by Wallace. The data involves strain rates up to 10/sup 7/ and shear stresses up to 5kbar. We interpret the relation in terms of a dislocation-kinetics model.
