Abstract

The optical lever method that is used to determine the Hugoniot adiabats of materials is considered. The analysis of wave processes in studied wedge samples with a deduction of the calculation formulas is presented. The formulas are written for registration of one shock wave and two-wave elastic–plastic configurations under loading of samples with a normally incident shock or detonation wave. As applied to registering single shock waves, a vector analogue of doubling rule has been constructed. It allows correct calculation of the particle velocity and other parameters of the compressed material states from the measured normal component of the free-sample-surface velocity WN and the wave velocity in the hydrodynamic approach. A computing procedure of the transition from WN to the particle velocity has been developed for two-wave configurations using a model ideal elastic–plastic behavior of the studied material. The errors of the method are presented.
