Presenting the fundamentals and advanced matter pertinent to the behaviour of materials under conditions such as impact, shock, stress and high strain-rate loadings, this study focuses on a microstructural point of view, which is the future direction of research at this time. The text unifies various aspects of the dynamic behaviour of materials under a variety of environments, and is intended for the practising engineer/scientist.
