This report describes an experimental study to determine the mechanical behavior of the polyurethane rubber material that was used in the W80-4 MCC Shock/Breach Phase 1 test series. Compression experiments were conducted on cylindrical specimens over a wide range of loading rates to characterize the material over the range of strain rates that were experienced in the shock/breach testing. Additionally, specimen diameter was varied to determine the effect of confinement on the material response and was found to be significant. This data is used to populate a material model to enable accurate analyses and finite element simulations of the shock/breach test series.
