HIGH SPEED DESTRUCTION OF BRITTLE MEDIA

The investigation of mechanisms for the initiation of the destruction of brittle media is the aim of the paper as well as the development of the new approach, based on a system of invariant determining parameters. As a result the new model of destruction, making it possible to explain and calculate experimentally observed effects, non-explainable from positions of traditional representations about destruction, has been suggested. The approach suggested makes it possible to forecast effectively strength properties of construction materials under conditions of a shock load and optimum regimes of the desintegration of solid bodiesAvailable from VNTIC / VNTIC - Scientific & Technical Information Centre of RussiaSIGLERURussian Federatio
