Fragmentation Hazard Study. Phase 3. Fragment Hazards from Detonation of Multiple Munitions in Open Stores
Abstract
An investigation of fragment hazards from multiple munitions in open stores is described. The objectives of the study were to estimate fragment hazards as a function of type and quantity of munitions, and configurations of the store. To this end an analytic stack model has been developed from insight gained on a series of small- and full-scale tests. A series of tests were run utilizing M117 750-lb bombs in order to verify the analytic stack model. Another set of verification tests were run with 155mm shells.
