THE HYDRODYNAMICS OF AN EXPLOSION

Abstract

The problem of external forces and problems involving the action of an explosion on a structure are investigated. These problems are of interest to engineers, designers, and scientific workers. The following 4 studies were made: 1. General Laws Governing the Propagation of Shock Waves, 2. Explosion in an Unbounded Medium, 3. Simplest Boundary Problems of Explosion Theory, and 4. Principal Aspects of the Problem of External Forces in the Case of Aerial and Underwater Explosions.
