## Abstract An equipment used for testing the response of watergel explosives to weak shocks is described. The main purpose of these tests was to investigate the shockβinitiating hazards when pumping watergel explosives of the nonβcapβsensitive type. The explosive sample (weight βΌ 20 g) was confine

## Abstract In this second part of a series of publications dealing with the application of the RobbinsβMonro method to the sensitivity testing of explosives, the experimental aspects are treated. The results of an experimental program with a primer dropβtest apparatus confirmed the efficiency whic
The signal speed, namely the local sound speed plus the flow velocity, behind the reflected shocks produced by the interaction of weak shock waves (M~ < 1.4) with rigid inclined surfaces has been measured for several shock strengths close to the point of transition from regular to Mach reflection. T
