Energy absorbing capability of materials subjected to impact under gravity loading
Energy absorbers are systems that convert kinetic energy into other fom1s ofenergy, such as pressure energy in compressible fluids, elastic strain energy in solids, and plastic defonnation energy in defom1able solids. The process of conversion for plastic defonnation depends, among other factors, o...
