Three-dimensional mesoscopic investigation on equation of state for dry sand under shock compression

The dynamic behavior of dry sand subjected to intensively dynamic loads such as blasts and projectile penetration is a topic of current research for military protection engineering. The equation of state (EoS) plays a crucial rule under such high pressure and high strain-rate. However, experimental investigation on the EoS of dry sand with a comprehensive considerations of sand configuration, such as the particle shape, grain composition and...
