Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was made of the distribution of ejecta from the crater formed by exploding 20 tons of TNT at the surface of a limestone outcrop. The distributions of both in situ material and material artificially introduced into the medium before the explosion are described. Variations with distance from burst point in ejecta areal density and the size distribution of ejecta are analyzed. Relationships between ejecta distribution and site topography and geology are discussed. Suggestions are made as to further work directed toward improving methods of predicting ejecta distribution from large explosions on rock. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aspects of cratering phenomenology are considered along with material properties and shock effects, theoretical cratering mechanics, ejecta, and problems of scaling. Attention is given to the application of high explosion cratering data to planetary problems, cratering mechanisms observed in laboratory-scale high-explosive experiments, nuclear cratering experiments, complex craters in alluvium, terrestrial impact structures, the Ries impact crater, buried impact craters in the Williston basin and the adjacent area, crater morphometry from bistatic radar, a Fourier analysis of planimetric lunar crater shape, a stratigraphic model for Bessel Crater and southern Mare Serenitatis, a nested-crater model of lunar ringed basins, Martian fresh crater morphology and morphometry, the distribution and emplacement of ejecta around Martian impact craters, the nature of the present interplanetary crater-forming projectiles, cratering mechanics and future Martian exploration, the response of rocks to large stresses, the dynamical implications of the petrology and distribution of impact melt rocks, and a review and comparison of hypervelocity impact and explosion cratering calculations.

This book was released on 2005-10-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underground facilities are used extensively by many nations to conceal and protect strategic military functions and weapons' stockpiles. Because of their depth and hardened status, however, many of these strategic hard and deeply buried targets could only be put at risk by conventional or nuclear earth penetrating weapons (EPW). Recently, an engineering feasibility study, the robust nuclear earth penetrator program, was started by DOE and DOD to determine if a more effective EPW could be designed using major components of existing nuclear weapons. This activity has created some controversy about, among other things, the level of collateral damage that would ensue if such a weapon were used. To help clarify this issue, the Congress, in P.L. 107-314, directed the Secretary of Defense to request from the NRC a study of the anticipated health and environmental effects of nuclear earth-penetrators and other weapons and the effect of both conventional and nuclear weapons against the storage of biological and chemical weapons. This report provides the results of those analyses. Based on detailed numerical calculations, the report presents a series of findings comparing the effectiveness and expected collateral damage of nuclear EPW and surface nuclear weapons under a variety of conditions.
