Description for Effects of Explosions on Materials
Hardback. Discusses the physical principles and experimental techniques of shock compression as applied to problems of inorganic chemistry and materials science. This book talks about the fundamental physics of shock waves, the dynamic compressibility of solids, and physical and chemical transformations that may be produced by a shock. Series: Shock Wave and High Pressure Phenomena. Num Pages: 194 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TGM. Category: (G) General (US: Trade); (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 482.
In the 1950s explosives began to be used to generate ultrahigh pressures in condensed substances in order to modify their properties and structure. Notwithstanding the short duration of an explosion, its energy proved to be high enough to perform physical-chemical transformations of substances, and the new method gained wide industrial applications. It has both advan tages and drawbacks in comparison with the traditional method of static compression. The latter method, notorious for its cumbersome and expensive machin ery, allows one to maintain high pressure as long as one pleases and to regu late the temperature of the sample arbitrarily. But, ... Read more
