Simulation Development for Target Assessment. Part III

Abstract

This effort produced design information and experimental data for improving high explosive simulation of nuclear airblasts. Specifically, a peak pressure versus charge density relationship for Iremite in 100 percent foam cavities was obtained for pressure up to 68 MPa. The results of this effort were transmitted to USAE Waterways Experiment Station. WES is conducting tests on generic silos as part of a DNA targeting research and test program.
