Development of an Instrument to Measure the Close-in Impulse Load of a Fragmenting Charge. Progress Report 1. Design and Testing of Prototype

Abstract

This progress report describes the development and testing of an impulse plug. Anticipated applications are, for example, the measurement of the impulse load of an AP mine on a vehicle belly. The tests identified improvements that will have to be incorporated into the final design.
