Abstract:

 

There are some equations to establish the relationship  between blastwave parameters with scaled distance.  In this paper, the  resulting data from numerical simulations by AUTODYN-1D for different  marked distances from detonation points and different amounts of  charge are compared with results from experimental data and equations.  To sum up, some equations for evaluating blastwave parameters are  presented, which are in excellent conformity with numerical and  experimental data.  In addition, the importance of the effect of  altitude from sea level is clearly expressed and the presented  equations are modified by proposing a modifying coefficient.
