Shock-compression of porous materials and diagnostic development

A robust experimental design for measuring the shock-response of granular materials at ambient and higher densities is described. The method employed Lagrangian sensors embedded in anvils surrounding a sample cavity. The shock-consolidation of silica powders with a range of initial densities, struct...
