Abstract:The numerous results of molecular-dynamic simulation of the melting process of some metals in shock waves are submitted. The Hugoniot adiabats, temperature of shock heating, structure of a shock wave front, change of structure behind a shock wave as a result of melting were determined during the simulation of steady shock waves. The obtained results were compared to the results of thermodynamic calculations and experimental data on shock wave compressibility, heating and melting.
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.
