Calibration of Melt, Shear Modulus, and Flow Stress Models for Cerium Subjected to Intensive Dynamic Loading

Calibration parameters are developed for melt, shear modulus, and flow stress models for cerium subjected to dynamic loading. Parametric calibration is developed for the Lindemann melt law and for the shear modulus and flow stress models of Steinberg, Cochran, and Guinan.
