This seminar covers the experimental methods we have developed for studies of high strain rate (104 ^s-1) fracture and fragmentation under uniform tensile loading. Two main themes are covered, firstly control over the stress state in the sample and secondly the initial temperature of the sample. Preliminary results on Ti6Al4V are then presented and discussed.

This talk is part of the Physics and Chemistry of Solids Group series.
