Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred twenty-one model tests of explosion induced craters in dry sand were conducted using small charges of PETN detonated at accelerations between 1g and 101g; ninety-six were found to be useful in analysis. Extrapolation to prototype dimensions indicates that for half-buried charges, crater volume, V, is a function of explosive weight, W to the 0.84 power, and crater radius and depth are functions of W to the 0.28 power. There were no detectable acceleration related scale effects from 31g to 101g. This confirms the value of the geotechnical centrifuge in modelling explosion induced craters at less than 100 g provided attention is paid to certain test conditions and scale effects. These include soil particle size, and angularity and soil strength which appear to strongly affect model crater volume and shape. Crater volume is also very sensitive to the unit weight of dry sand and to a lesser degree to charge location, geometry and orientation. Boundary effects arising from model dimensions and the centrifuge enclosure were examined. Keywords: Cratering, Model test extrapolation, Half buried high explosives. (EDC).

Download or read book Physical Modelling in Geotechnics Volume 2 written by Andrew McNamara and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 1333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical Modelling in Geotechnics collects more than 1500 pages of peer-reviewed papers written by researchers from over 30 countries, and presented at the 9th International Conference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics 2018 (City, University of London, UK 17-20 July 2018). The ICPMG series has grown such that two volumes of proceedings were required to publish all contributions. The books represent a substantial body of work in four years. Physical Modelling in Geotechnics contains 230 papers, including eight keynote and themed lectures representing the state-of-the-art in physical modelling research in aspects as diverse as fundamental modelling including sensors, imaging, modelling techniques and scaling, onshore and offshore foundations, dams and embankments, retaining walls and deep excavations, ground improvement and environmental engineering, tunnels and geohazards including significant contributions in the area of seismic engineering. ISSMGE TC104 have identified areas for special attention including education in physical modelling and the promotion of physical modelling to industry. With this in mind there is a special themed paper on education, focusing on both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching as well as practicing geotechnical engineers. Physical modelling has entered a new era with the advent of exciting work on real time interfaces between physical and numerical modelling and the growth of facilities and expertise that enable development of so called ‘megafuges’ of 1000gtonne capacity or more; capable of modelling the largest and most complex of geotechnical challenges. Physical Modelling in Geotechnics will be of interest to professionals, engineers and academics interested or involved in geotechnics, geotechnical engineering and related areas. The 9th International Conference on Physical Modelling in Geotechnics was organised by the Multi Scale Geotechnical Engineering Research Centre at City, University of London under the auspices of Technical Committee 104 of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE). City, University of London, are pleased to host the prestigious international conference for the first time having initiated and hosted the first regional conference, Eurofuge, ten years ago in 2008. Quadrennial regional conferences in both Europe and Asia are now well established events giving doctoral researchers, in particular, the opportunity to attend an international conference in this rapidly evolving specialist area. This is volume 2 of a 2-volume set.

Download or read book Water Waves Generated By Underwater Explosion written by Bernard Le Mehaute and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996-04-16 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on explosion-generated water waves. It presents the theoretical foundations and experimental results of the generation and propagation of impulsively generated waves resulting from underwater explosions. Many of the theories and concepts presented herein are applicable to other types of water waves, in particular, tsunamis and waves generated by the fall of a meteorite. Linear and nonlinear theories, as well as experimental calibrations, are presented for cases of deep and shallow water explosions. Propagation of transient waves on dissipative, nonuniform bathymetries together with laboratory simulations are analyzed and discussed.
