Meso-scale computational investigation of polyurea microstructure and its role in shockwave attenuation/dispersion

In a number of recently published studies, it was demonstrated that polyurea possesses a high shockwave-mitigation capacity, i.e. an ability to attenuate and disperse shocks. Polyurea is a segmented thermoplastic elastomer which possesses a meso-scale segregated microstructure consisting of (high gl...
