Abstract:Fundamentals of plane shock wave loading are described in relation to spherical shock loading which is the characteristic of ballistic and hypervelocity impact and penetration of materials, particularly metals and alloys. The evolution of microstructure with shock pressure and especially shock-wave-induced twinning and the role of stacking-fault free energy in fcc metals and alloys are discussed along with critical shock pressure for twinning and the twinning-microband microstructure transition for oblique sho… Show more
