Metallurgical effects on the constitutive and fragmentation behavior of OFHC copper rings

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6187214
Preliminary results of recent constitutive and fragmentation studies on electromagnetically launched expanding ring specimens of fully annealed OFHC copper with grain sizes of 10, 30-50, 90-120, and 150-200 ..mu..m are reported. Grain size correlations with material behavior are developed and briefly discussed in reference to previous data, with particular attention to thermodynamic models of fragmentation.
