Abstract
The spall-type fracture of uranium was investigated in the temperature range -196 to 800 degrees C. The critical levels of shock-wave loadin g were determined, responsible for the initiation of the spall sites a nd complete macroscopic failure of the specimens. The data are describ ed of metallographic research into the fracture behavior of uranium at various test temperatures.
