## 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 shock‐initiating hazards when pumping watergel explosives of the non‐cap‐sensitive type. The explosive sample (weight ∼ 20 g) was confine

## Abstract Process safety officials often place great emphasis on the results from tests to define various fire and explosion hazards inherent in dusts. These include the flammability, the autoignition temperature, the lower explosive limit, and sometimes the K~st~‐value which is a characteristic
## Abstract In this second part of a series of publications dealing with the application of the Robbins‐Monro method to the sensitivity testing of explosives, the experimental aspects are treated. The results of an experimental program with a primer drop‐test apparatus confirmed the efficiency whic
## Abstract A computer simulation study of the Robbins‐Monro method is presented. This method can be used to determine percentage points of a distribution function describing the probability of explosion as a function of some stimulus level. Calculations were performed to establish the influence of
