Abstract
This paper describes results from Taylor impact experiments on specimens cut from a Ti-6Al-4V plate. High-speed photography and a mirror arrangement are used to obtain images of the specimen from three views. The positions of the edges of the specimen in these images are then used to fully reconstruct the specimen surface in 3D, allowing the real-time anisotropic deformation of the specimen to be studied. Further to this, the traditional anvil used in Taylor impact experiments has been replaced with an instrumented target bar, which enables the force at the end of the specimen to be calculated over the duration of the experiment. The results from these Taylor impact experiments are compared to Finite Element simulations using an anisotropic material model.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
