Abstract

The perturbation problem of the magnetic field of a constant–current turn located above a conducting plate set into motion by a plane shock wave with a rectangular profile is considered. It is shown that not only the velocity of the plate but also its dynamic conductivity can be determined on the basis of the electromotive force of induction recorded by means of the turn. For the case where the conductance of the plate is known for both the conducting half–space and for a plate whose thickness is comparable with the skin–layer thickness, approximatecalculated dependences for the velocity of the plate are obtained. A comparison with experimental data and the clarification of the calculated dependences allows one to conclude that the approaches proposed can be used for determining the conductance of metals in shock–wave processes.
