Flow in a Steady, Normal Shock

Fin S Flow in a steady, normal shock. Shock trajectory (S), piston path (P), sample forward characteristics (solid), and particle paths (dashed) are shown [Pg.517]

Cook (Ref 2) devotes Chapter 9 to a discussion of compressive elastic props of solids under expl attack. Modern applications of expls involve the compressibility of solids under extremely high pressures. Walsh et al (Ref 1) reported the equations of state of 27 metals under shock compression. Schall Thomer (Ref 3) measured the shock compressibility of Mg-Al alloy, Lucite polyethylene by flash radiographic techniques [Pg.517]
