The Hugoniot for 90W-7Ni-3Fe Tungsten Alloy

Abstract

The Hugoniot for 25-percent swaged tungsten alloy composed of 90W-7Ni-3Fe has been established at pressures from 17.5 to 184.5 GPa. Within this pressure range the shock velocity is linearly related to the particle velocity by the expression, U sub p =3.744 + 1.522u sub p, where the velocity unit is km/ s.
