Studies on Mechanical and Aerodynamical Blast-Attenuation Devices,

Abstract

Protection of personnel and/or equipment in enclosures against strong blasts involves the use of fast-action valves to shut off ventilation inlets and other openings. Such a device was submitted to shocks up to 5 atms in a large shock-tube facility and after redesign adequate strength was demonstrated.
