Procedures for the Analysis of the Debris Produced by Explosion Events

Abstract

Questions often arise as to the proper procedures to apply to the collection and analysis of the debris produced by explosive events. This paper recommends a standardized set of collection and analysis procedures which should be applied to both the debris produced by accidental events and the debris produced by planned explosion tests. Sample calculations which demonstrate the methodology are presented.
