Abstract
This article contains a brief review of some recent developments on the response of structures subjected to large dynamic loads, which produce large inelastic strains. It is focussed on topics which are of interest in the design of naval architecture and ocean engineering structures. In particular, comments are offered on the strain rate sensitive behaviour of materials, including various high strength steels, dynamic rupture strains, and the dynamic inelastic failure of structures. Other topics discussed briefly include the dynamic energy absorbing characteristics of structures, scaling, and the response of fibre metal laminates.
