Equations of state for solids at high pressures and temperatures from shock-wave data

This paper deals with the analytic derivation of a complete equation of state (EOS) for solids from shock-wave data in the range of pressures and temperatures, attained by detonation of chemical explosives. The caloric, the thermal and the incomplete EOS are determined as well. An equation for the shock temperature along the Hugoniot curve is derived also.
