< b=""> The book provides a concise description of the
physical processes and mathematical models for explosions and
formation of blast waves from explosions. The contents focus on
quantitatively determining the energy released in the different
types of explosions and the destructive blast waves that are
generated. The contribution of flames, detonations and other
physical processes to the explosion phenomenon is dealt with in
detail. Gaseous and condensed phase explosions are discussed and
the yield of explosions with their TNT equivalence is determined.
Time scales involved in the explosion process and the scaling
procedure are ascertained. Explosions over the ground, in water,
and the interaction of explosions with objects are examined. In
order to keep the text easily readable, the detailed derivation of
the mathematical equations is given in the seven appendices at the
end of the book. Case studies of various explosions are
investigated and simple problems and their solutions are provided
for the different topics to assist the reader in internalizing the
explosion process. The book is a useful reference for professionals
and academics in aeronautics, mechanical, civil and chemical
engineering and for personnel working in explosive manufacture and
high-energy materials, armaments, space, defense, and industrial
and fire safety.
