Analysis and Evaluation of Suppressive Shields

Abstract

This report documents work performed for the Edgewood Arsenal Suppressive Structures program. Included were the development of approximate energy solutions for the response of structures to blast loading, the analysis of strain data from the Category I 1/4-scale model tests, and calculations of pressure-time histories for the burning of M10 propellants in the Category V shield.
