Distended Material Model Development. Volume I. Experiments and Theory for the Model

Abstract

The report discusses a research program to develop a dynamic response model or constitutive relations for porous materials, to test this model against results from shock wave experiments, and to incorporate the model into a computer program for the analysis of shock wave propagation arising either from impacts or from radiation deposition. The model developed exhibits melting, vaporization, and temperature-dependent compaction resistance, yielding, consolidation, and spalling. The model accounts for loading and unloading, heating and cooling, and any combination of these processes.
