This book compiles a variety of experimental data on blast waves.
The book begins with an introductory chapter and proceeds to the
topic of blast wave phenomenology, with a discussion on
Rankine-Hugoniot equations and the Friedlander equation, used to
describe the pressure-time history of a blast wave. Additional
topics include arrival time measurement, the initiation of
detonation by exploding wires, a discussion of TNT equivalency, and
small scale experiments. Gaseous and high explosive detonations are
covered as well. The topics and experiments covered were chosen
based on the comparison of used scale sizes, from small to large.
Each characteristic parameter of blast waves is analyzed and
expressed versus scaled distance in terms of energy and mass.
Finally, the appendix compiles a number of polynomial laws that
will prove indispensable for engineers and researchers.
