Summary
The importance of the role played by materials properties under shock loading conditions is outlined by a discussion of experimental results. Several inferences are then drawn from computer simulations of penetration events with applications to both kinematic and materials issues. A discussion is presented of suggested tests for characterizing material response in this regime.
