Shock waves are sudden, short-term pressure changes that propagate through a medium at supersonic speeds. In industry, research, and development, accurately measuring these extremely rapid events is essential. This enables the improvement of materials, the safety of products, and the validation of simulation models. In various fields, precise shock wave measurements help ensure the reliability and lifespan of components under extreme conditions.
However, the requirements for the measurement technology used are extremely high, and not every data acquisition system can meet them. Our latest application report provides more details and explains why the LTT24 is the preferred instrument for shock wave measurements:
