On a shock-induced martensitic phase transition

Abstract

A recently developed continuum-mechanical model for stress-induced phase transitions in solids is applied to a transition generated by impact. The role of transition kinetics in determining the macroscopic response to impact is discussed; in addition, the special way that "overdriven" phase boundaries emerge in this model is described. The predictions of the model are compared with experiments involving shock-induced graphite-to-diamond phase transitions.
