High-Pressure Shock Compression of Solids IV: Response of Highly Porous Solids to Shock Loading

by Lee Davison and Mohsen Davison, Lee; Horie, Yasuyuki; Shahinpoor

While much is known about the effects of shock compression on monolithic materials, the unusual physical and chemical processes that take place when a porous medium is shocked have not been studied so much. In this work, researchers in condensed matter physics, physical chemistry, metallurgy, mechanics and materials science seek to bridge the gap. The focus is on heterogeneous deformation mechanisms, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, and chemical processes,...
