Dynamic interface instabilities such as Rayleigh-Taylor, Kelvin-Helmholtz, and Richtmyer-Meshkov are important in a number of physical phenomena. Besides meriting study because of their role in natural events and man-made applications, they can also be used to study constitutive properties of materials in extreme conditions. Both RTI and RMI configurations have been used to study the strength of solids at high strain rates, though RMI has largely been limited to zero or ambient pressure. Recently, advances in imaging have allowed tamped RMI experiments to be performed in which the pressure is maintained above ambient. In this study, we examine the tamped RMI for determining material strength. Through simulation, we explore the behavior of the jetting material and examine the sensitivity of jetting to material properties. We identify simple scaling laws that relate the key physical parameters controlling jetting, which are compared to previous results from the literature. We use these scaling law and other considerations to examine issues associated with tamped RMI experiments.
