Abstract
In the present study, quasi-static tests and impact tests were performed for investigating the mechanical behaviour of EPP (Expanded polypropylene) and EPS (Expanded polystyrene). Four different density cylindrical type specimens were prepared for EPP and EPS and 0.001 $s^{-1}$ and 0.1 $s^{-1}$ of strain rate conditions for quasi-static tests and 100 J, 200 J and 300 J of incident energy conditions for the instrumented impact tests were considered.
