Abstract. The high-strain-rate method of materials for dynamic strength investigations under microand sub-microsecond durations of shock loads on the base of electrical explosion of conductors was developed. The experimental investigations of dynamic properties for bulk metallic glass on the base of Zr under shock loads of sub-microsecond duration (~0.5-0.7 µs) in the pressure range up to 12 GPa were carried out. The values of Hugoniot elastic limit (HEL) and spall strength for this amorphous alloy were received. The Hugoniot shock adiabat parameters were determined in the space U sh -u p . The result of microstructure analysis of saved specimens revealed areas of recrystallization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
