Annotation Presents 236 papers from the July/August, 1997 conference. Included are sections on equations of state; phase transitions; mechanical properties of reactive and nonreactive materials; material properties and synthesis; optical, electrical, and laser studies; hypervelocity phenomenology; and impact and penetration mechanics. Attention is focused on the strain and failure behavior, the weak impulse initiation, and the safety aspects of explosives. Developments in measurement techniques, particularly those employing fast optical methods, are also discussed. The CD-ROM contains the contents of the text.
