Characterization of the Dynamic Behavior of Porous Solids. Volume 4. Electron Beam Studies of Porous Beryllium and Porous Ceramics.

Abstract

This work was part of a two-year program to characterize the response of porous, refractory materials to rapid energy deposition. The objective of the electron-beam experiments reported here was to obtain stress-time profiles for porous ceramics and beryllium in the high internal-energy region of the equation-of-state surface. Stress-time profiles or, alternatively, particle velocity histories were recorded with piezoresistive gages and interferometric techniques, respectively. Test materials selected for characterization were (1) sintered and flame-sprayed alumina (Al2O3), (2) plasma-sprayed aluminum titanate (Al2TiO5), and (3) plasma-sprayed distended beryllium (PSDB).
