Procedures for the Collection, Analysis and Interpretation of Explosion-Produced Debris - Revision 1

Abstract

In 1999, the first version of a document that attempted to standardize the methodology and procedures used for the collection and analysis of explosion-produced debris information was prepared. It provided a bibliography of available explosion debris information, discussed various methods that might be used to collect and catalog debris information, and concluded by presenting and discussing algorithms that might be used to analyze the data. This original document has proven to be extremely useful and widely disseminated. Debris location techniques have changed dramatically in the last ten years. In addition, it has been shown that some of the original document's recommendations and suggestions need clarification and/or change. Therefore, at the request of the NATO community, the original document has been reviewed and, where appropriate, updated and its contents revised.
