%X A simple equation of state model for metals at high temperature and pressure is described. The model consists of zero-temperature isotherm, thermal ionic components, and thermal electronic components, and is applicable in compressed as well as expanded volume regions. The three components of the model, together with appropriate correction terms, are described in detail using Cu as a prototype example. Shock wave Hugoniot, critical point parameters, liquid¨Cvapor phase diagram, isobaric expansion, etc., are evaluated and compared with experimental data for Cu. The semianalytical model is expected to be useful to prepare extended tables for use in hydrodynamics calculations in high-energy-density physics. View Full-Tex
