Abstract:The paper analyzes numerically the hydrodynamic processes developing inside the fused quartz under the action of intense laser impulses. Depending on laser intensity two basic regimes are obtained and described in details. At low intensities, the slow regime driven by the heat transfer is observed. Herewith, the fracture took place in the heated region before the phase transition. At higher intensities, the high-speed propagation regime is established characterized by the fracture events exactly at the interfa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
