Molecular dynamics simulations of ramp-compressed copper

The compression of solids by a ramped pressure pulse, as opposed to shock compression, affords the potential to create states of solid-state matter at pressures greater than those achievable in diamond anvil cells. A fundamental understanding of this process requires a knowledge of the loading condi...
