| A Revised Empirical Approach to Airblast Prediction. (1998) | |||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||
| Airblast from buried chemical and nuclear detonations has been under systematic investigation for two decades. There now exists a sizable body of information collected during field experiments conducted over the years. The report contains a summary compilation of the available data for all significant large-yield events and synthesizes these data into an empirical prediction method. Since the airblast from buried detonations approaches a consistent attenuation at the longer ranges of interest for safety predictions, a purely empirical 'transmission factor' analysis based on consistent longer range data from subsurface detonations is used.
