Experimentally simulating adiabatic behaviour: capturing the high strain rate compressive response of polymers using low strain rate experiments with programmed temperature profiles

Polymers are widely used in applications where they may be subjected to impact loading leading to high strain rate deformation. Plastic work on deformation generates heat in the material. At high strain rates, there is insufficient time for this heat to diffuse out of the material, leading to adiaba...
