Abstract
The literature gives little information on the effects of strain rate on the mechanical properties of alloys. The cracking resistance criterion Kλ has been determined for low-strength aluminum alloy AMts on small specimens, together with a series of standard and nonstandard strength, strain, and energy characteristics for plastic-strain rates of 10−3–103 sec−1. A dynamically loaded structure such as the central tube in a spiral explosive magnetic generator should be made of AMts alloy in the heat-treated state.
