An improved Kirkwood–Bethe model for calculating near-field shockwave propagation of underwater explosions

To calculate the near-field shockwave propagation of underwater explosions for different explosives quickly and accurately, an improved calculation model, based on the Kirkwood–Bethe theory, is proposed. Based on the detonation theory and shock jump conditions, the model establishes initial equilibr...
