RISBlast-Wave Clearing for Detonations of High Explosives
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When a blast wave impinges on the front face of a structure, rarefaction waves are formed along its free edges and propagate toward the center of the front face, and reduce the reflected overpressure: an effect known as ...
Incident and Normally Reflected Overpressure and Impulse for Detonations of Spherical High Explosives in Free Air
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Air-blast parameters, including incident and reflected peak overpressures and impulses, and shock-front arrival times, are typically estimated for protective design using charts developed by Kingery and Bulmash. The charts ...
Reflection Coefficients and Reflected Scaled Impulses from Detonations of High Explosives as a Function of Angle of Incidence
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Incident and reflected peak overpressures and reflected impulses are often used to compute blast loads on structures, components of structures, and objects. Reflection coefficients are used to transform incident to reflected ...
Influence of Charge Shape and Point of Detonation on Blast-Resistant Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Charts in technical manuals and standards of practice can be used to compute incident and reflected peak overpressures and scaled impulses generated by a detonation of a high explosive. Design values are reported for ...
