Cover-plate materials are influencing the build-up distances and delay times of high explosive charges in contact to the barrier, loaded by shaped charge jets. Materials with strong bulging behavior give long build-up distances, as steel and ceramics, with subsonic perforation velocities in contrast to materials with…

X-ray diffraction experiments have been carried out on b-eucryptite (LiAlSiO 4 ) at pressures up to 2.5 GPa and temperatures up to 1073 K in a large-volume apparatus. With room-temperature compression, we observed a phase transition to a new polymorph between 0.83 and 1.12 GPa. This transition is reversible in charact…

A time-resolved infrared spectroscopic investigation was made into the thermal imidization behavior of poly(3,4′-oxydiphenylene pyromellitamic acid) precursor in a microscaled film. The CNH bend–stretch (amide-II band) was found to be the most useful tool for examining the imidization mechanism in the precursor film.…

The effect of grain size on void swelling has its origin in the intrinsic property of grain boundaries as neutral and unsaturable sinks for both vacancies and self-interstitial atoms. The phenomenon had already been investigated in the 1970s and it was demonstrated that the grain-size-dependent void swelling measured…
