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

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
This work compares experimental and numerical results concerning the elastic dynamic response of an air-backed rectangular aluminum plate subjected to an underwater explosion. Experiments were executed in a 4 m Γ 4 m Γ 4 m water tank. A small quantity of charge was applied to ensure the dynamic resp
