Summary:The results obtained from investigations into the special features inherent in the mechanical characteristics (Hugoniot elastic limit and spall strength) observed under shock-wave loading of Al-[Al.sub.2][O.sub.3] composite samples produced by an explosive powder compaction technique are presented. Embedding 10 wt.% of aluminum oxide in the aluminum matrix has been found to increase the Hugoniot elastic limit as opposed to the commercial-grade AD1(Al 1013) aluminum alloy. Keywords: aluminum, composite material, shock waves, strength, fracture, Hugoniot elastic limit.
