SHOCK COMPACTION OF Gd-DOPED CERIA CERAMICS
Abstract
Gd-doped ceria nano powder(~5 nm) was shock-loaded by a plate impact experiment using a single stage light gas gun. A computational model was used to simulate the shock state (pressure and density changes along time) of the sample in two dimensional Eulerian code. The predicted density of compacted sample from the simulation was about 90%. To reveal the effect of shock compaction on sintering behavior, the recovered sample was heat-treated and the microstructure was compared with that of a conventionally compacted and heat-treated sample.
