Dissipative processes under the shock compression of glass

Аннотация

New experimental data on the behavior of the K8 and TF1 glasses under shock-wave loading conditions are obtained. It is found that the propagation of shock waves is close to the self-similar one in the maximum compression stress range 4-12 GPa. Deviations from a general deformation diagram, which are related to viscous dissipation, take place when the final state of compression is approached. The parameter region in which failure waves form in glass is found not to be limited to the elastic compression stress range, as was thought earlier. The failure front velocity increases with the shock compression stress. Outside the region covered by a failure wave, the glasses demonstrate a high tensile dynamic strength (6-7 GPa) in the case of elastic compression, and this strength is still very high after transition through the elastic limit in a compression wave.
