This research examines the mechanics behind the formation of large meteorite impact craters, focusing on the collapse of transient cavities. It aims to improve simulation models and understand the processes involved in crater morphology.
This research project will study the formation of large meteorite impact craters, characterized by central peaks or rings, flat floors and terraced walls.
The complex morphology results from the gravity driven collapse of a much deeper and narrower transient cavity.
Standard material models fail to explain such a collapse and specific temporary weakening mechanisms have been proposed.
The most successful approach, the Acoustic Fluidization (AF) model, relies on the temporary softening of heavily…
