This paper aimed to experimentally clarify the dynamic crushing mechanism and performance of ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) and analyze the influence of density and thickness on its mechanical behavior and energy absorption properties under dynamic impact loadings. Hence, a series of dynamic...
