It is proved that Johnson's damage number is the sole similarity parameter for dynamic plastic shear failure of structures loaded impulsively, therefore, dynamic plastic shear failure can be understood when damage number reaches a critical value. It is suggested that the damage number be generally used to predict the dynamic plastic shear failure of structures under various kinds of dynamic loads (impulsive loading, rectangular pressure pulse, exponential pressure pulse, etc.,). One of the advantages for using the damage number to predict such kind of failure is that it is conveniently used for dissimilar material modeling. carried out an approximate theoretical study of this problem for predicting the onset of these three failure modes. Duffey [7] found that hard-point shear failure in cylindrical shells is adequately predicted by the theory for shear failure in beams, by studying two loading cases (i.e. rectangular pressure pulse and exponential pressure pulse). Zhao et al. found that consideration of the influence of rotatory inertia and the presence of crack increases the initial kinetic energy required to cause dynamic plastic shear failure [8,9]. 349
