Conclusions
-
1.
Within the limits of experimental error, the impact compressibility of different aluminum alloys in the test pressure range is weakly dependent on chemical composition, treatment process, and material strength.
-
2.
Resistance to deformation in the high strain rate region increases with increasing strain rate, and the boundary for a marked effect of strain rate on its resistance moves into the region of higher rates.
-
3.
In the case of the absence of a correlation between strength properties with uniaxial stress and uniaxial strain states, their sensitivity to loading rate may be connected with a single viscosity factor.
