Book Processes Occurring in Shock Wave Compression of Rocks and Minerals

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shock wave studies on rocks and minerals have contributed significantly to current understanding of the earth's interior and have the potential of providing further high pressure physical properties such as transport and higher order thermodynamic properties. Because of this potential, it is important to have a detailed understanding of the physical state achieved by shock compression. With recent advances in time-resolved shock wave instrumentation and improved methods for analyzing continuous stress wave information, a clearer picture is emerging of the processes of yielding and phase transformation occurring during the shock compression. The present report will review recent advances in time-resolved shock wave instrumentation which are currently being used in the study of rocks and minerals and describe the analysis techniques which have been developed to relate shock waves profiles to the thermomechanical processes occurring during shock compression. Evidence for complicating features resulting from yielding in silicates and oxides is reviewed and a physical model for phase transformation and deformation in rocks and minerals is discussed. New supporting data on the shock compression and relief properties of periclase and calcite are also presented.

Book Plane Shock Wave Studies of Geologic Media

Download or read book Plane Shock Wave Studies of Geologic Media written by and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plane shock wave experiments have been conducted on eight geologic materials in an effort to determine the importance of time-dependent mechanical behavior. Of the eight rocks studied, only Westerly granite and nugget sandstone appear to show time independence. In the slightly porous materials (1-5 percent), Blair dolomite and sodium chloride, and in the highly porous (15 to 40 percent) rock, Mt. Helen tuff and Indiana limestone, time-dependent behavior is associated with the time required to close the available porosity. In water-saturated rocks the time dependence arises because the water that is present shows no indication of transformation to the higher pressure ice phases, thus suggesting the possibility that a metastable form of water exists under dynamic conditions.

Book Shock Waves in Condensed Matter

Download or read book Shock Waves in Condensed Matter written by Y. M. Gupta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 922 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fourth American Physical Society Topical Conference on Shock Waves in Condensed Matter was held in Spokane, Washington, July 22-25, 1985. Two hundred and fifty scientists and engineers representing thirteen countries registered at the conference. The countries represented included the United States of America, Australia, Canada, The People's Repub lic of China, France, India, Israel, Japan, Republic of China (Taiwan), United Kingdom, U. S. S. R, Switzerland and West Germany. One hundred and sixty-two technical papers, cov ering recent developments in shock wave and high pressure physics, were presented. All of the abstracts have been published in the September 1985 issue of the Bulletin of the American Physical Society. The topical conferences, held every two years since 1979, have become the principal forum for shock wave studies in condensed materials. Both formal and informal technical discussions regarding recent developments conveyed a sense of excitement. Consistent with the past conferences, the purpose of this conference was to bring together scientists and engineers studying the response of condensed matter to dynamic high pressures and temperatures. Papers covering experimental, theoretical, and numerical studies of con densed matter properties were presented. A noteworthy feature of this conference was the participation by several leading scientists engaged in static high pressure research. Donald Curran served as the Master of Ceremonies at the conference banquet, which was at tended by two hundred and seventy-five conference participants and guests including Dr. Samuel Smith, the new President of Washington State University. Dr.

Book Molecular and Chemical Physics  Chemistry  Biological Effects  Geo and Planetary Sciences  New Resources  Dynamic Pressures  High Pressure Safety

Download or read book Molecular and Chemical Physics Chemistry Biological Effects Geo and Planetary Sciences New Resources Dynamic Pressures High Pressure Safety written by B. Vodar and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Pressure Science and Technology, Volume 2 contains the proceedings of the Association Internationale for Research and Advancement of High Pressure Science and Technology's VIIth International Conference held in Le Creusot, France, from July 30 to August 3, 1979. The papers explore a wide range of topics relating to high pressure science and technology, including molecular and chemical physics; melting and dense fluids; liquid crystals; molecular thermophysical properties; light scattering; intermolecular spectroscopy; high-temperature, high-pressure fluids; and properties of earth materials. This volume is comprised of 128 chapters and begins by calculating equations of state for static molecular and metallic hydrogen using the density functional method. The following chapters discuss the effect of density on the induced near infrared absorption spectrum of solid molecular hydrogen at 4.2 K; vibrational relaxation in highly compressed hydrogen; the dual melting curves of carbon tetrachloride; and the statistical theory of polymorphic phase transitions and crystallization. Alkane chain conformation as a function of pressure is also examined, along with high pressure thermodynamics and phase equilibria of fluid mixtures. The remaining sections focus on the lithosphere, athenosphere, and the behavior of dense materials. This book will be a valuable resource for materials scientists, metallurgists, physicists, chemists, and mechanical engineers.
