This book treats the experimental methods used to determine the physical properties of explosives and explosions - physical principles, operating procedures and evaluations of results. Aimed at practicing engineers as well as experimental physicists who investigate the effects of explosions, this book will be of interest to research laboratories, manufacturers of explosives, military training establishments, technical laboratories and so forth.
It seems that there is no book that treats the measurement of the
physical pa rameters of explosives as its only subject, although
limited information is avail able in a number of books. Therefore,
I have tried to bridge this gap in the lit erature with this book.
A large number of various physical parameters have to be determined
ex perimentally in order to test or characterise an explosive.
Various physical principles have been applied for such
measurements. Accordingly, a large number of different experimental
methods exist, as well as various testing appa ratuses and
procedures. On the other hand, great progress has been made
recently in the study of detonation phenomena. New measuring
techniques can assess extremely short processes to below
nanoseconds scale. They make it possible to determine im portant
parameters in detonation physics. I have made a great attempt to
cover the available literature data on the subject. Because it
would be a highly demanding task to include in a single volume all
the methods that are in use by various testing agencies, I have
tried to give primarily the principles for determination of
individual physical pa rameters of explosives by different
measuring methods as well as data treatment procedures.
