While much is known about the effects of shock compression on monolithic materials, the unusual physical and chemical processes that take place when a porous medium is shocked have not been studied so much. In this work, researchers in condensed matter physics, physical chemistry, metallurgy, mechanics and materials science seek to bridge the gap. The focus is on heterogeneous deformation mechanisms, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, and chemical processes, discussing such topics as: modelling the complex interplay of thermal, mechanical, and chemical processes; experimental data on pore collapse and their interpretation; and synthesis of new materials through shock-induced chemical reactions.

Seller's Description:
Fine. No Dust Jackets Present. 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. 342 pages. "Much of the current interest in shock compression of porous solids stems from the desire to bond hard, refratory powders into strong and dense solids. However while much is known about the effects of shock compression on monollithic materials, the unusual physical and chemical processes that take place when a porous medium is shocked have been little studied thus far. The focus of this book is on heterogeneous deformation mechanisms, nonequilibrium thermodynamics, and chemcial processes." FINE-HARDCOVER, lower corners of book are bumped slightly, does not affect the text.
