Fast x-ray radiography to study the dynamic compaction mechanisms in a rigid polyurethane foam under plate impact

This article presents results of plate impact experiments coupled to in situ X-ray radiography, performed on a polyurethane foam, to visualize its deformations during the propagation of a stress wave. A two-wave structure associated with the propagation of an elastic precursor and pores compaction h...
