Structure of a shell made from uranium alloyed with iron and germanium after explosive loading

This paper presents results of metallographic examination a thick-wall spherical shell from uranium alloyed with iron and germanium. is recovered after low-level explosive loading. Light microscopy, hardness measurement, scanning electron microscopy X-Ray diffraction study were used to investigate the meridional section test as this most completely exhibits whole variety structural features associated loading material. Processing, presentation, analysis experimental data on volumetric distribution studied physical quantities performed help digital panning color mapping.
