First-order polymorphic, second-order, melting, and freezing transitions induced by shock-wave loading are reviewed. Comprehensive tabulations of the experimental observations are presented and materials that have been subjected to in-depth study are reviewed in more detail. Theories of the mechanics, thermodynamics, kinetics, and shear strength of shock-loaded materials are described and experimental techniques are briefly reviewed.
