International Journal of Impact Engineering. Volume 23, Number 1. Part I. December 1999. Hypervelocity Impact. Proceedings of the 1998 Symposium

摘要

This volume contains the papers presented at the 1998 Hypervelocity impact Symposium (HVIS 98) held in Huntsville, Alabama, on November 17-19, 1998. This was the sixth symposium since the re-initiation of the symposia in 1986, and the proceedings for the 1986, 1989, 1992,1994, and 1996 HVIS are published as Volumes 5, 10, 14, 17, and 20, respectively, of the International Journal of Impact Engineering. The 85 papers in this volume address advancements in the basic understanding of hypervelocity impact physics, related phenomenology, and engineering applications. Each paper in this volume has undergone peer review by experts in their respective fields of research. The authors are to be commended for keeping to the schedule for providing their draft manuscripts for review, making appropriate modifications and corrections, and preparing the final manuscript.
