This book presents the most up-to-date collection of research activities in the area of high-pressure shock compression. Current reviews and original research papers are given on theoretical and experimental aspects of high-pressure equations of state, on dynamic plastic response and strength of solids, on numerical simulation and modeling of material response, on fast optical techniques and other advances in experimental technique, on laser-driven shocks, on material modification and shock-induced defects, on geologic and geophysical materials, on dynamic compaction and on modeling and behavior of initiation in energetic materials. Six plenary, 13 invited and 203 research papers are presented.

Annotation A two-volume set containing papers from the August 1995 conference, describing both the micro- and macroscopic mechanical, chemical, electromagnetic, and optical response of condensed phase materials to shock stimuli, and discussing theoretical, computational, and experimental results. Includes sections on equations of state, phase transitions, material properties and synthesis, and optical, electrical, and laser studies, with emphasis on explosive behavior and initiation. Other highlights include explosive safety and shock waves for industrial and medical applications, measurement techniques, and gauge development. Includes a plenary lecture on applications of shock compression science to Earth and planetary physics. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

The papers collected together in this volume constitute a review of recent research on the response of condensed matter to dynamic high pressures and temperatures. Inlcuded are sections on equations of state, phase transitions, material properties, explosive behavior, measurement techniques, and optical and laser studies. Recent developments in this area such as studies of impact and penetration phenomenology, the development of materials, especially ceramics and molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations are also covered. These latest advances, in addition to the many other results and topics covered by the authors, serve to make this volume the most authoritative source for the shock wave physics community.
