Numerical Evaluation of Craters Produced by Explosions on the Soil Surface
Studies of craters produced by explosions above and underneath the ground surface are rarely found in the open technical literature. Most reports are confidential and access is limited to government agencies. Much of the information on explosively formed craters found in the literature is based on experimental data. Numerical studies were very limited until recently. An ablity to predict the an...
متن کاملSurface detonation in type Ia supernova explosions?
We explore the evolution of thermonuclear supernova explosions when the progenitor white dwarf star ignites asymmetrically off-center. Several numerical simulations are carried out in two and three dimensions to test the consequences of different initial flame configurations such as spherical bubbles displaced from the center, more complex deformed configurations, and teardrop-shaped ignitions....
متن کاملRelative Location of Explosions Using Surface Waves
A method of relative location for explosions using Rayleigh waves is developed and tested. It involves cross correlating a wavetrain with a previously recorded signal from the same source region and &?.t&mining a relative "travel-time" from the peak in the -ross correlation trace. Locations are fairly accurate, but do not compare with the precision obtained with body waves and relative travel-t...
متن کاملInterfacial jetting phenomena induced by focused surface vibrations.
We exploit large accelerations associated with surface acoustic waves to drive an extraordinary fluid jetting phenomena. Laterally focusing the acoustic energy to a small region beneath a drop placed on the surface causes rapid interfacial destabilization. Above a critical Weber number We, an elongated jet forms for drops with dimensions greater than the fluid sound wavelength. Further increase...
متن کاملDisordered surface vibrations in jammed sphere packings.
We study the vibrational properties near a free surface of disordered spring networks derived from jammed sphere packings. In bulk systems, without surfaces, it is well understood that such systems have a plateau in the density of vibrational modes extending down to a frequency scale ω*. This frequency is controlled by ΔZ = 〈Z〉 - 2d, the difference between the average coordination of the sphere...
