Interpretation of laser-driven V and TA Rayleigh-Taylor strength experiments (original) (raw)

2012

Abstract

ABSTRACT We present theoretical and computational analysis of the deformation regimes accessed by recent Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) material strength experiments in vanadium (V) and tantalum (Ta) done at the Omega laser at high pressures (>1 Mbar) and high strain rates (106 - 108 sec-1). Within the context of the LLNL multiscale models, the V-RT experiment appears to be dominated by deformation in the drag regime, whereas the Ta-RT experiment resides largely within the thermal activation regime.
