This book contains the proceedings of EXPLOMET(TM) 2000,
International Conference on Fundamental Issues and Applications of
Shock-Wave and High-Strain-Rate Phenomena, held in Albuquerque, New
Mexico, 2000; the fifth in the EXPLOMET(TM) quinquennial series
which began in Albuquerque in 1980.
The book is divided into five major sections with a total of 85
chapters. Section I deals with materials issues in shock and high
strain rates while Section II covers shock consolidation,
reactions, and synthesis. Materials aspects of ballistic and
hypervelocity impact are covered in Section III followed by
modeling and simulation in Section IV and a range of novel
applications of shock and high-strain-rate phenomena in Section
V.
Like previous conference volumes published in 1980, 1985, and
1995, the current volume includes contributions from fourteen
countries outside the United States. As a consequence, it is hoped
that this book will serve as a global summary of current issues
involving shock and high-strain-rate phenomena as well as a general
reference and teaching componant for specializd curricula dealing
with these features in a contemporary way.
Over the past twenty years, the EXPLOMET(TM) Conferences have
created a family of participants who not only converse every five
years but who have developed long-standing interactions and
professional relationships which continue to stimulate new concepts
and applications particularly rooted in basic materials
behavior.
