The objective is to develop an innovative tool to accurately and (numerically) efficiently predict fracture and fragmentation under high strain-rate loading, employing first-principles finite element software. A core difficulty of commonly used numerical methods is representing discontinuities in phenomena such as shear bands and cracks. (Approved for Public Release 15-MDA-8482 (17 November 15))
