Shock-Wave Studies Of Ice Under Uniaxial Strain Conditions
Abstract Shock-wave studies of ice under uniaxial strain conditions have been conducted at stress levels up to 3.6 GPa. A light-gas gun accelerated the flat-faced projectile used to impact the ice-containing targets. The ice samples were initially at ambient pressure and at temperatures of –10 ± 2°...
