Abstract
Polyurea exhibits strong strain rate effects and viscoelastic properties in dynamic loading tests. Under repeated cyclic loading, polyurea also exhibits stress softening behavior, known as the Mullins effect. To investigate the stress-strain characteristics and stress softening behavior of polyurea under repeated quasi-static and dynamic loads, specimens suitable for compression and tensile quasi-static and dynamic testing were designed, and the large strain nonlinear mechanical behavior and stress softening characteristics of polyurea were analyzed. The mechanical behavior of polyurea under repeated loading was characterized and optimized based on a visco-hyperelastic constitutive model consisting of a third-order Ogden hyperelastic model, a second-order Prony series, and two Mullins parameters. Importing the stress-strain curve obtained from the constitutive model into numerical simulation analysis can effectively capture the nonlinear and damage behavior of polyurea under blast impact loads.

Areas relevant to the journal encompass the following general topics and those associated with them:
-Behaviour and failure of structures and materials under impact and blast loading
-Systems for protection and absorption of impact and blast loading
-Terminal ballistics
-Dynamic behaviour and failure of materials including plasticity and fracture
-Stress waves
-Structural crashworthiness
-High-rate mechanical and forming processes
-Impact, blast and high-rate loading/measurement techniques and their applications
