## Abstract The blast wave patterns from the explosion of cylindrical charges are very complex and the pressureβtime histories exhibit multiple shocks. The accurate assessment of the blast wave parameters (positive peak overpressure, duration, and the positive impulse) thus is not a simple task. In
This paper presents an investigation into the use of a pendulum device for evaluating the energy and hence the impulse transferred to structures from detonating doped and undoped high explosives at ranges of generally less than 0.5 m. For such close-in explosions, evaluating the load delivered by ei
The structural dynamic behaviour of cylindrical explosive chambers to internal blast loading produced by concentrated explosive charges is studied. Special attention is given to the formation and development of dynamic strain growth and the factors which affect it in the dynamic loading of explosive
