Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The objective of this special volume is to disseminate information on current trends in the fields of explosion, shock wave and high-energy reaction phenomena and to establish a world-wide network so as to overcome the limitation, on related research fields, arising from the low number of active researchers.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). Explosion, shock wave, high-energy reaction and other high-rate phenomena of various materials are the main topic of this collection. The book includes papers related to explosion and shock wave phenomena driven by explosives and other impulsive phenomena including their applications. The use of such intense dynamic loading has been employed for materials processing technology and the field is currently spreading to food processing and others. The volume will bring to readers new idea for the progress in science and technology.

The book presents the papers presented at the 6th international conference on Explosion, Shock Wave and High Strain-Rate Phenomena (ESHP). Topics covered include: Advanced Manufacturing under Impact/Shock Loading, Detonation of High Pressure Flammable Gas in Closed Spaces, High Strain-Rate Behaviour of Auxetic Cellular Structures, Underwater Shock Waves Generation, Magnetic Pressure Welding of Aluminum Sheets, Shock Synthesis of Zirconium Oxides, Impact Joining of Dissimilar Metals, High-Speed Oblique Collision of Metals, Dynamic Behavior of Dislocation Wall Structures, Tensile Strength of Rock at High Strain Rates, Fiber Reinforced Mortar, Impact Analysis of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer, Explosive Welding , Underwater Explosive Welding , Making Ultrafine Explosives, Aluminum-Steel Explosive Cladding, Explosively Cladded Aluminum Hybrid Composites, Explosive Clads with Interlayers.

5th ESHP Selected, peer reviewed papers from the Fifth International Symposium on Explosion, Shock Wave and High-Strain-Rate Phenomena (5th ESHP), September 25-28, 2016, Beijing, China
