Abstract
Piezoelectric measurements have been performed behind metallic samples submitted to short laser shocks of intensities up to 7 TW/cm2, using recently developed polymeric transducers. Some records exhibit a recompression indicating spall damage, confirmed by post-test microscopic observations. Computations involving a laser-matter interaction model and a wave-propagation code lead to a correct agreement on the gauge records. They indicate peak pressures of 7 to 150 GPa in the targets. A phenomenological spall model of the literature provides an approximated description of the relaxation associated with spallation, and a fair estimate of the damage level and location in the target.


Résumé
Des mesures piézoélectriques ont été réalisées à l'arrière de cibles métalliques soumises à des chocs laser brefs d'intensité pouvant atteindre 7 TW/cm2, au moyen de capteurs polymériques. Certains signaux comportent une recompression traduisant un écaillage des cibles, confirmé par un examen post-test. La simulation des expériences avec un modèle d'interaction laser-matière et un code de propagation est en accord correct avec les enregistrements. Elle indique des pressions maximales de 7 à 150 GPa dans les cibles. Un modèle phénoménologique d'écaillage fournit une description approximative de la relaxation associée à la rupture, et de la distribution de l'endommagement dans la cible.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
