MABS Monograph Air Blast Instrumentation, 1943 - 1993. Measurement Techniques and Instrumentation. Volume 3. Air Blast Structural Target and Gage Calibration.

Abstract

Structural response measurement techniques and instrumentation developed by Military Applications of Blast Simulators (MABS) participating countries for field tests over the period 1943 through 1993 are summarized. Electronic and non-electronic devices deployed on multi-ton nuclear and high-explosive events are presented with calibration techniques. The country and the year the gage was introduced are included with the description. References for each are also provided.
