Dynamic Compaction of Ceramic Materials.

Abstract

Progress relative to the explosive compaction of hot metallic and ceramic materials is described. The compaction technique, explosive characterization and initial computations of compaction with a two-dimensional Lagrangian finite-difference computer code TROTT are described. Computed results are shown to indicate how sample, container, explosive and unloading waves influence the compaction process.
