Shock waves in polycrystalline iron: Plasticity and phase transitions by Gunkelmann, N, Bringa, E, Tramontina, DR, Ruestes, C, Suggit, M, Higginbotham, A, Wark, J, Urbassek, H

“…However, while experiments in polycrystals show clear evidence that the α-ε transition is preceded by plasticity, simulations up to now could not detect any plastic activity occurring before the phase change. Here we study shock waves in polycrystalline Fe using an interatomic potential which incorporates the α-ε transition faithfully. …”

The application of clinical lithotripter shock waves on RNA nucleotide delivery to cells by Carlisle, R

“…RNA based transfection is conceptually more efficient than commonly delivered plasmid DNA because it does not require division or damage of the nuclear envelope thereby increasing the chances of the cell remaining viable. Shock waves (SWs) have been shown to induce cellular uptake by transiently altering the permeability of the plasma membrane, thereby overcoming a critical step in gene therapy. …”
