Abstract

A method for investigating the static and dynamic deformation of materials subjected to hydrostatic confining pressures is described. Results of tests on high-purity (99.995 percent) copper in compression are given. These tests cover a range of hydrostatic pressures from one to 6,985 bars (100,000 psi) and strain rates from 0.001 to 10,000 sec−1. The results show a definite strain-rate effect which is dependent on pressure.
