First, the life and death of 0.8 seconds: the engineering code of anti-impact performance
(Dynamic chart: impact energy absorption curve of different materials)

1.1 Impact dynamics revealed
When a 1-ton weight hits a pipe at a speed of 9m/s, the material needs to complete the energy transformation within 0.8 seconds:

Elastic deformation stage (0-0.2 seconds): molecular chain stretching to absorb the initial kinetic energy

Plastic deformation stage (0.2-0.5 seconds): the microstructure of the material undergoes orderly destruction.

Fracture failure stage (0.5-0.8 sec): crack extension leading to structural collapse
