Shock User's Manual Version 1.0
Abstract
SHOCK is a blast load analysis program, which will calculate the impulse and pressure on all or part of a blast surface, which is bounded by 1 to 4 reflecting surfaces. SHOCK will read input from a program data file or a Blast Library Database. The input can also be entered interactively. The required input is the length and width of the blast surface, the number and location of the reflecting surfaces and the weight and location of the charge. SHOCK calculates the impulse and pressure on either all or part of the blast surface from the incident blast wave and from the waves reflecting off of each adjacent surface. SHOCK uses these results to calculate the maximum average pressure on the blast surface from each incident and reflected wave, and the total average impulse from the sum of all the waves. SHOCK also calculates the impulse duration on the blast surface.
