ANALYSIS OF THE OPTICAL DETERMINATION OF DETONATION VELOCITY IN SHORT CHARGES,

Abstract

A transformation equation was derived whereby the data from smear camera records of the peripheral detonation of a short (L/D of 2.5) tetryl charge can be interpreted to obtain a detonation velocity measurement. The results are in excellent agreement with the values measured along the axis as well as with those published in the literature. (Author)
