In a Taylor anvil test, a cylinder is projected against a rigid structure and deformed upon impact. To infer the strength of the material from this data, we first employed a high-fidelity computer code, which utilizes a parametric strength model, to build an emulator model for the deformation profile of the cylinder after impact. We then performed Bayesian calibration of the strength model from digitized points of a post-experiment photo of a deformed tantalum cylinder. Moreover, we utilized data fusion techniques to simultaneously calibrate strength model parameters using both Taylor anvil data as well as data from other types of strength experiments.
