โœฆ Synopsis

Linear elastic shock response of plane plates subjected to underwater explosion is of importance to warship designers. Underwater explosion experiments were carried out with small quantity of explosive charges on air-backed 4 mm high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel circular plates of 290 mm diameter and rectangular plates of 300;250 mm with varying stand o!. Strain gauges were "xed at regular intervals from the centre to the edge of the plates and dynamic strains were recorded. Strain distribution function was formed from the experimental data using which semi-analytical models were derived for predicting the elastic strain. The models showed good agreement with the experiments.

Underwater explosion damage of a plane plate restrained at its edges occurs in more than one phase. While the initial plate kick-off velocity is due to the primary shock pulse, the secondary, tertiary and the following responses are clearly due to the reloading effects. The tensile wave during refl
