OSTI ID:6183553
We have used computer simulations to study the explosive consolidation of powders in various experimental configurations. The objectives of these studies are (1) to help design experimental geometries that permit recovery of dense, consolidated powders, and (2) to help understand why failures occur in other geometries. We present results of our computer simulations of the geometries used by various experimenters for the consolidation of tungsten powder into rods, aluminum nitride powder into tubes and diamond powder into disks. We show that the stress histories experienced by the powders in these geometries are qualitatively different.
