A Survey of Compression Studies on Silicon Carbide (SiC)

Abstract

Compression of a solid material under plane shock wave propagation/loading can provide information related to change in density and shear strength with pressure/stress of the material under inertial confinement The present work surveys and analyzes the existing shock compression and high-pressure data on silicon carbide to provide pertinent information to material modelers and others for use in their work related to this material. It also points out a set of investigations that needs to be carried out to complement the existing data.
