Shock compression experiments on several polymers in the 1 GPa stress region

We have established a reliable shock Hugoniot measurement system especially useful for the 1 GPa shock wave in polymer materials. We have developed two Hugoniot measurement methods, one of which is based on the total internal reflection of light at the bottom face of the prism placed on the specimen...

Description
Summary:We have established a reliable shock Hugoniot measurement system especially useful for the 1 GPa shock wave in polymer materials. We have developed two Hugoniot measurement methods, one of which is based on the total internal reflection of light at the bottom face of the prism placed on the specimen, while the other is the PVDF gauge method, combined with the optical prism pin. Some of the measured examples for polymer are given.
