Shock-wave loading of elconites: Numerical investigation

The results of numerical experiments on modeling shock-wave loading of metal composites-elkonites, which are sintered refractory materials (W, WC or Mo) impregnated with fusible metal (Ag or Cu) using thermodynamically equilibrium model TEC (thermodynamic equilibrium components) are presented. Interest in the research of compressibility of such mixtures is associated with the possibility of creating materials with the necessary properties, and with the properties of the materials themselves. The modelling of materials with such components is carried out to develop the promising direction of obtaining materials with specified properties. The good agreement of the model calculations with the data of different authors, which are determined on the basis of experiment, is obtained.
