Three Dimensional Hydrodynamic Mine Impact Burial Prediction

Abstract

Work Overview: 1) Participated in two critical path experiments within the ONR sponsored Mine Burial Prediction Program: First--Carderock Mine Drop Experiment, 10-14 Sept 2001 NSWC-CCD, Carderock, MD, 1/3 scale mine shapes, 5 meters depth; Second--Corpus Christi Mine Drop Experiment 2, 17 May 2002 Corpus Christi Mine Warfare Operating Areas, full scale mine drops, 16-18 meters depth. 2) Full data analysis of 1/15 scale mine drop (Gilless 2001) and 1/3 scale mine drop data sets. Performed preliminary analysis of full scale mine drop data set for NRL-SSC. 3) 3-D hydrodynamic model development and validation.
