Quantity-Distance Prediction Model

Abstract

This model provides a method for establishing the fragment hazard produced by the mass-detonation of stored ammunition stacks. Fragmentation characteristics used as input are derived from small-scale arena tests. In the case of projectiles, the small scale test may consist of one or more pallets positioned to yield a representative sample of an entire stack.
