Fallout Simulation: Nuclear Cratering Device Simulation (Project Diamond Ore). (2002)

Leahy,Edward J., Oltmans,Dennis L., Snell,Charles M., Lane,William B., Donlan,Terrence J.

The report discusses the development and use of the neutron activable tracer iridium to tag mineral particles in high explosive cratering charges (1) to simulate radioactive fallout from a nuclear...

Prediction of Ground-Shock-Induced Airblast Over-pressures for Subsurface Explosions from Peak Vertical Spall Velocity. (1998)

Snell,Charles M., Oltmans,Dennis L.

A technique is presented for the prediction of ground-shock-induced airblast overpressures resulting from the subsurface detonation of nuclear and chemical explosives. The technique is based on a...

A Revised Empirical Approach to Airblast Prediction. (1998)

Snell,Charles M., Oltmans,Dennis L.

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...

Prediction of Airblast Overpressures from Underground Explosions. (1998)

Snell,Charles M., Oltmans,Dennis L., Leahy,Edward J.

Two methods are presented for predicting airblast overpressures from underground chemical explosive and nuclear detonations. The first method utilizes empirical scaling techniques to predict both...
