Further Applications of a Crystal Lattice Disintegration Criterion to Predict Shock-Induced Reactive Conditions in Solid Materials.

摘要

Experimental data for several reactive (explosive) and inert materials have been examined, and the important particle velocities (V1 and VF) were computed. The associated shock velocity (Usf) and shock pressure (Psf) were also calculated to facilitate comparison with experimentally observed reactive or anomalous events. The explosives analyzes are: pressed TNT, PBX-9407, octol, pressed PETN, and crystal PETN. Three rather diverse inert materials are considered. They are: poly pyromellitimide (PPMI), iron, and sodium chloride (NaC1). PPMI is a complex polymeric compound whose low-pressure shock-loading behavior is highly non-linear. (Author)
