505 0 _aBasic Concepts and Introduction to Blast Waves and Explosions -- Blast Waves in Air -- Interaction of Blast Waves with Rigid and Non-rigid Bodies -- Energy Release and Rate of Energy Release -- Thermal Theory of Explosions -- Propagation of Reaction Front: Detonation, Deflagration and Quasi-detonation -- Formation of Flames and Detonations in Gaseous Explosives.
520 _aThe book provides a concise description of the physical processes and mathematical models for explosions and formation of blast waves from explosions. The contents focus on quantitatively determining the energy released in the different types of explosions and the destructive blast waves that are generated. The contribution of flames, detonations and other physical processes to the explosion phenomenon is dealt with in detail. Gaseous and condensed phase explosions are discussed and the yield of explosions with their TNT equivalence is determined. Time scales involved in the explosion process and the scaling procedure are ascertained. Explosions over the ground, in water, and the interaction of explosions with objects are examined. In order to keep the text easily readable, the detailed derivation of the mathematical equations is given in the seven appendices at the end of the book. Case studies of various explosions are investigated and simple problems and their solutions are provided for the different topics to assist the reader in internalizing the explosion process. The book is a useful reference for professionals and academics in aeronautics, mechanical, civil and chemical engineering and for personnel working in explosive manufacture and high-energy materials, armaments, space, defense, and industrial and fire safety.
