The mechanical response of high-explosive (HE)-driven "Taylor-wave" (TW) shock-prestrained 304 stainless steel loaded to 35 to 45 GPa has been investigated in compression and tension at room temperature and compared to results from compressive testing of the annealed microstructure at a strain rate of 10^sup -3^/s. The microstructure and substructure evolution due to TW shock prestraining has been investigated using optical metallography and transmission electron microscopy. The mechanical be...
