Shocked single crystals studied via nanosecond Laue diffraction and molecular dynamics

<p>Under shock compression it is believed that crystalline materials undergo complex, rapid, micro-structural changes to relieve the large applied shear stresses. The mechanisms involved, such as dislocation flow and deformation twinning, under the generated high strain rates are not fully und...
