Bar A

This is a quarter model of a Taylor bar impacting a rigid wall. The Taylor bar is used in experiments to determine strain rate effects in metals. The input deck A is set up for a Lagrangian analysis. Elements at the bottom of the bar get highly deformed. Download is available in the download section of this document.
