High Strain Rate Characterization of Shock Absorbing Materials for Landmine Protection Concepts

Numerical modelling of footwear to protect against anti-personnel landmines requires dynamic material properties in the appropriate strain rate regime to accurately simulate material response. Several materials (foamed metals, honeycombs and polymers) are used in existing protective boots, however p...
