abstract = "Shock wave interactions within a material create a three-dimensional damage field of voids and/or strain localizations. Using a direct high explosive experiment, seven identical shots were performed to test the reproducibility of the damage fields between replicate samples. These samples, along with a sample from a plate impact experiment, were metallographically characterized to quantify the spallation void statistics. Results demonstrate that multiple section planes are required to accurately quantify the damage within a specimen. To further understand the three-dimensional nature of incipient spallation, serial sectioning was performed on a flyer plate experimental sample. Serial sectioning is yielding void and strain localization interactions not available from two-dimensional slices.",
