Investigations of Underground Explosions with Model Tests. Preliminary Report 1.

Abstract

A preliminary report describing main results at the present stage of an investigation of underground explosions with model tests in the scale 1/100 is presented. Pressure data from measurements using the models are given. It was expected that if the proposed scaling laws disagreed too much with the physics involved, self similarity would not take place. It was also expected that this could be observed experimentally. The data, however, do not appear to contradict self similarity.
