![]() Therefore, the particle velocity versus time profile data are presented comparing the 4340 steel and PH 13-8 Mo stainless steel. The work presented here investigates replacing the current 4340 steel with PH 13-8 Mo stainless steel in order to have a more corrosion resistant, weldable and more compatible material for the multi-year life of the component. Peak pressures are calculated from the particle velocities for the elastic, plastic more ยป I and plastic 11 waves in the steel. ![]() Measured particle velocity versus time profiles, using a Velocity Interferometer System for Any Reflector (VISAR) are presented for the brass and steel output free surfaces. 15 microseconds) the first plastic wave arrives at the PZT ceramic. The depolarization of the PZT ceramic is produced by the elastic wave of specific amplitude (10-20 Kilobars) and this process must be completed before (about 0. Elastic, plastic I and plastic II waves with different velocities are generated in the steel bulkhead. The planar shock wave depolarizes the PZT 65/35 ferroelectric ceramic to produce an electrical output. The purpose of the PSGEL component is to generate a plane shock wave input to 4340 steel bulkhead (wave separator) with a ferro-electric (PZT) ceramic disk attached to the steel on the surface opposite the PSGEL. The PSGEL component consists of a detonator, explosive, brass cone and tamper housing. This PSGEL component is designed to generate a planar shock wave transmitted to perform a function through a steel bulkhead without rupturing or destroying the integrity of the bulkhead. Sandia National Laboratories is currently involved in the optimization of a Plane Shock Generator Explosive Lens (PSGEL).
