AN ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR THE DESIGN OF SCORED RUPTURE DIAPHRAGMS FOR USE IN SHOCK AND GUN TUNNELS

Abstract

A method of determining burst pressure and petal curvature for a particular diaphragm opening, thickness and score depth is presented which utilizes the plastic stress-strain relationship for the diaphragm material as determined by a conventional tensile test. A comparison of experimental and predicted results is included.
