Abstract:Rupture dynamics of thin metallic diaphragms significantly influence the development of radially uniform planar shocks in hypersonic impulse facilities and consequently have a significant influence on the operating conditions of such facilities. Little literature exists for predicting the rupture pressure and opening times of diaphragms in impulse facilities and therefore there is interest among researchers in this field to develop characteristic models that describe mechanical properties of diaphragms during … Show more
