Abstract
A system that permits the soft recovery of specimens shock loaded with a gas gun has been designed for dynamic fracture studies. Post‐impact damage to the specimen is minimized via the in‐flight capture of the projectile and flyer disk. The system has been tested for projectile velocities up to 0.32 mm/μsec.Keywords
