Design of a Free Field Blast Simulating Shock Tube

A 30.5 cm diameter, detonation driven shock tube facility has been designed, constructed and tested. The design goals of the shock tube were to reproduce free field blast wave profiles on a laboratory scale using atmospheric gaseous detonation as the energy source. Numerical simulations were utilize...
