The combined simultaneous loading is applied by a drop weight hammer to a cylindrical specimen which has its axis inclined to the loading axis. The results for titanium and tungsten alloys show a strong sensitivity of the onset of adiabatic shear failure which is promoted under small amounts of shear component to the main compression stress. The results are characterized and compared with predictions using a finite element method analysis.deadiabatic shear failureadiabatisches Scherversagencompression testingDruckprüfungfinite element analysisFinite-Elemente-Methode (FEM)Mehrachsigkeitmultiaxial stressesScherprüfungshear testingtitanium alloyTitanlegierungtungsten alloyWolframlegierung620660671journal article
