Vv. Pai et al., INVESTIGATION OF SHOCK COMPRESSION OF COMPOSITE POROUS-MEDIA BY A NONDISTURBING ELECTROMAGNETIC TECHNIQUE, Combustion, explosion, and shock waves, 32(2), 1996, pp. 225-229
A remote-control electromagnetic technique is developed to determine t
he mass velocity behind a shock wave (SW) in porous, fibrous, and othe
r heterogeneous media. As an application of the technique a shock adia
bat of Al2O3 powder of bulk density was constructed in the region of l
ow pressures.
