SHOCK PHOTOGRAPHY
Abstract
The objectives of Project ''Shock Photography'' were: (1) to augment the data available for the free-air pressure-distance curve, and to investigate the effects of large yields and varying altitudes on scaling; and (2) to obtain basic radius-time data in a non-homogeneous atmosphere in order to investigate the effects of a real atmosphere on air shocks resulting from free-air shots. In addition to the required data, shock radius-time data were obtained along the surface, and radius-time data of a cool inner zone within the shock sphere were measured.
