Isothermal compression data derived from shock-wave and static-compression measurements on metals exhibit a nearly precise linear relation between the logarithm of the bulk modulus and the specific volume up to volume changes of 40%. As a result, solid isotherms can be accurately fitted or extrapolated in this range by means of two parameter functions of either a Birch or a modified Tait form.
