New data, obtained under strong shock wave conditions from an underground nuclear explosion, on the compressibility of aluminum, plexiglass, and quartz

Description

The shock compressibility of porous quartz (with initial density poo=1.35 and 1.75 g/cm3), plexiglass, and aluminum was investigated at pressures of 1.8, 2.0, 0.6, and 0.54 TPa, respectively. Experimental data were obtained on the two-stage compressibility of aluminum at 1.4 TPa. 29 refs., 5 figs., 2 tabs
