Description

One of the main goals of investigations of shock-wave phenomena in condensed matter is to develop methods for predicting effects of explosions, high-velocity collisions, and other kinds of intense dynamic loading of materials and structures. Based on the results of international research conducted over the past 30 years, this book is addressed not only to experts in shock-wave physics, but also to interested representatives from adjacent fields of activity and to students who seek an introduction to the current issues.

Table of Contents

1 Introduction to the Theoretical Background and Experimental Methods of Shock Physics.- 2 Elastic-Plastic Response of Solids Under Shock-Wave Loading.- 3 Yield and Strength Properties of Metals and Alloys at Elevated Temperatures.- Chapter4 Behavior of Brittle Materials under Shock-Wave Loading.- 5 Two Examples of Spatially Resolved Shock-Wave Tests.- 6 Polymorphic Transformations and Phase Transitions in Shock-Compressed Solids.- 7 Equations of State and Macrokinetics of Decomposition of Solid Explosives in Shock and Detonation Waves.- 8 Shock Waves and Extreme States of Matter.
