Stress Relaxation of Elastic Precursor for Unalloyed Uranium and Some Uranium‐Based Alloys

The new data are presented on relaxation of an elastic precursor in unalloyed depleted uranium and two its alloys. Results were obtained under low‐intense explosive loading. Statistic thermofluctuational model was used for approximation of experimental data. The inversion of strength properties of the tested U‐Mo and U‐Fe‐Ge alloys at their quasi‐static and high‐rate loading was revealed.
