Shock Waves in Materials Science

Shock Waves in Materials Science edited by Akira B. Sawaoka.

In this volume, the shock compression technology of materials is described in parallel with the latest research results and their background. In the past, this type of technology was developed in connection with military techniques by certain particular research organizations. For this reason, resea...
