The Deformation of Lead in Torsion at High Strain Rates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experiments are described in which specimens of lead are strained in torsion at high rates using the split Hopkinson bar and explosive loading. Tests were conducted at nominal strain rates of ...
Experiments on Strain Rate History and Temperature Effects During the Plastic Deformation of Close-Packed Metals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A study is presented on the influence of strain rate and strain rate history on the flow stress of several metals. Experiments were performed on specimens of four polycrystalline metals: 1100-0 ...
On the Use of a Torsional Split Hopkinson Bar to Study Rate Effects in 1100-0 Aluminum
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The difficulties involved in the accurate measurement of the flow stress of materials at high rates of deformation are reviewed, and methods of overcoming these difficulties are discussed. It ...
Evaluation of Neuromuscular Parameters Describing Human Reflex Motion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In a companion paper to the present, a model is derived to predict human reflex motion. This model contains a set of seven neuromuscular parameters which are evaluated in the present paper ...
Partially Activated Human Skeletal Muscle: An Experimental Investigation of Force, Velocity, and EMG
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experiments are described which establish quantitative relations between muscular force, contraction velocity, and the electrical activity of the muscle (as measured by the surface EMG) under ...
