The Dynamics of Multiple Pair-Wise Collisions in a Chain for Designing Optimal Shock Amplifiers
The major focus of this work is to examine the dynamics of velocity amplification through pair-wise collisions between multiple masses in a chain, in order to develop useful machines. For instance low-cost machines based on this principle could be used for detailed, very-high acceleration shock-test...
