By: Khanel, G. I [author.]Material type: TextTextPublisher: Boca Raton : CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, 2019Description: 1 online resourceContent type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9780415015820; 0415015820; 9780429275807; 0429275803; 9781000018615; 100001861X; 9781000012095; 1000012093; 9781000005271; 1000005275Subject(s): Shock waves | Elastic waves | Solid state physics | SCIENCE / Mechanics / General | SCIENCE / Mechanics / Solids | SCIENCE / Chemistry / General | SCIENCE / Solid State PhysicsDDC classification: 531/.33 LOC classification: QC168.85.S45 | K43 2019ebOnline resources: Taylor & Francis | OCLC metadata license agreement Summary: Methods and the latest results of experimental studies of the strength properties, polymorphism and metastable states of materials and substances with extremely short durations of shock-wave action are presented. The author provides a comprehensive and theoretical description of specific features of the dynamics of elastoplastic shock compression waves in relaxing media. The presentation is preceded by a detailed description of the theoretical foundations of the method and a brief discussion of the basic methods of generating and diagnosing shock waves in solids. Key Selling Features: Addresses dynamic elastic-plastic response, spallation, and shock-induced phase transformation. Provides a centralized presentation of topics of interest to the shock physics community Presents new data on the mechanism and basic patterns of sub-microsecond polymorphic transformations and phase transitions. Investigates destruction waves in shock-compressed glasses. Analyzes the behavior of highly hard brittle materials under shock-wave loading and ways to diagnose fracture.
