Introduction to Shock Wave Physics of Condensed Matter

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Shock Wave and High Pressure Phenomena ((SHOCKWAVE))

Abstract

The scientific field of shock wave physics uses information from a number of sub-fields, such as hydrodynamics, continuum mechanics, thermodynamics, electrodynamics, and quantum mechanics. Information is presented from these sub-fields, as needed. The reader is responsible for background reading in these sub-fields for further understanding.
