Abstract

Results of dam** measurements for mild steel under biaxial dynamic stresses are discussed. Experimental methods are described, and a phenomenological theory of dam** is presented to set the context for the discussion. The experiments indicate that dilatational as well as distortional stresses are important in the dam** of polycrystalline materials.
