Hugoniot equation
Submitted by Henry Tan on Sat, 2007-05-05 17:28.
The Rankine-Hugoniot equation governs the behaviour of shock waves (http://imechanica.org/node/1245#comment-2327) normal to the oncoming flow.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rankine-Hugoniot_equation
Hugoniots equations are thermodynamical equations derived from the laws of conservation of mass, momentum, and energy, that relate the velocity of a shock wave and the pressure, density, and enthalpy of the transmitting fluid before and after the shock wave passes.

Equations of State
Submitted by Henry Tan on Sat, 2007-05-05 17:05.An equation of state is a formula describing the interconnection between various macroscopically measurable properties of a system.
In physics and thermodynamics, an equation of state is a relation between state variables. More specifically, an equation of state is a thermodynamic equation describing the state of matter under a given set of physical conditions. It is a constitutive equation which provides a mathematical relationship between two or more state functions associated with the matter, such as its temperature, pressure, volume, or internal energy. Equations of state are useful in describing the properties of fluids, mixtures of fluids, solids, and even the interior of stars.

modern explosion science and engineering
Submitted by Henry Tan on Fri, 2007-02-02 18:22.This blog focuses on the behaviors of energetic materials (such as solid rocket propellants, high explosives), shock waves, and explosions. And also on the protections, from the design of protecting materials and structures.
