Effects of Cavitation on Underwater Shock Loading - Plane Problem Part 1

Abstract

Development and testing of a finite element program for shock-induced cavitation is described. A displacement potential function is the dependent variable used. Graphical output is presented for an encounter which induces repeated cavitation.
