Abstract
The investigation of the temperature dependence of the strength of constructional materials under intense shock loads, including breaking loads, is of considerable practical interest. There are certain technical difficulties involved in loading the materials and making the required measurements in such experiments. Hence, the number of papers devoted to this problem is extremely limited. In [1, 2] data is given on the elastic-plastic properties of a number of metals at normal and high temperatures, obtained by investigating the parameters of elastic waves excited by an explosion. In [3, 4] investigations were carried out of the temperature dependence of the breaking point for splitting-off in steel and copper. In the present paper we investigate the effect of the specimen temperature on the breaking point for splitting off in widely used AMG-6 aluminum alloy in the temperature range from 0°C to 550°C, i.e., practically up to the temperature at which the alloy begins to melt.
