Dynamic Compression of Porous Tungsten

Abstract: Data are presented from a study conducted to examine the shock-loading behavior of a sintered porous tungsten with a density of 12.64 g/cm3 (corresponding to 65.3% of the density of solid tungsten). The experiments were performed by using a gas gun and high explosives. Hugoniot data obtained in the stress range between about 12 kbar and 1 Mbar indicate that compression of the porous material to a fully compacted state is essentially complete at 50 kbar. Above this level, a predicted Hugoniot, calculated from t… Show more

“…In addition to these features, sintered powders, foam-based materials, and ceramics whose particles are connected by a skeleton have additional peculiarities caused by skeleton compression or breakdown. For this reason, the behavior of a porous or fragmented material under shock-wave compression can be characterized by propagation of complicated multi-wave structures consisting of one or several elastic precursors and a wave of irreversible compression [5][6][7][8][9][10]. If the particles of a porous 474 0010-5082/05/4104-0474…”

“…For this reason, the behavior of a porous or fragmented material under shock-wave compression can be characterized by propagation of complicated multi-wave structures consisting of one or several elastic precursors and a wave of irreversible compression [5][6][7][8][9][10]. If the particles of a porous medium are connected by a skeleton, a three-wave configuration propagates over such a medium [5][6][7]9]. The first wave is elastic, the second wave is generated by skeleton breakdown, and the third wave is caused by splitting of fragments and a decrease in the degree of their anisotropy, i.e., is a wave of irreversible compression.…”

“…Cavity collapse plays a prominent role in the initiation of energetic reactions in explosives [5]. In this side, most of previous studies concerned the Hugoniots [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] and the equation of state [14][15][16]. It is known that, under strong shocks, the porous material is globally in a nonequilibrium state and show complex dissipative structures.…”

“…Shock compressibility of tungsten is investigated at megabar pressure with use of traditional explosive systems [19,13,65,66] and two-stage light-gas gun [67,68]. Results of shock compression of porous tungsten, obtained with the use of traditional plain and hemispherical explosive drivers to 3 Mbar [66,69,[70][71][72], significantly expand investigated region of the phase diagram to lower densities. Nuclear impedance measurements are reported at 60 Mbar [73].…”
