Francis D. Murnaghan of John Hopkins University presented an equation of state suitable for representing solids <ref> [http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pmcentrez&artid=1078704 F.D. Murnaghan. "The Compressibility of Media under Extreme Pressures. ''Proceedings of hte National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America'', 30(9):224-247, 1944] </ref>. The equation has become known as the '''Murnaghan''' equation of state. Having high energy dependence on volume, the equation of state has found considerable use in condensed phase media. | |||

Many papers have since been published on the applicability of the Murnaghan equation of state, many of which have presented alternate equation of state forms for solids. In general, it has been shown that the Murnaghan equation of state breaks down for compression ratios greater than ~0.7-0.8 times the original volume, which occurs as a consequence of the linear dependence of the bulk modulus on pressure and constant bulk modulus pressure derivative.

Several popular forms presented to address this issue are the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state, the Vinet (Universal) equation of state, the Holzapfel equation of state, the Kumari-Dass equation of state, and the Baonza equation of state. | ||
