Frequency Bandwidth of Pressure Sensors Dedicated to Blast Experiments

open access: yesSensors, 2022
New broadband (>1 MHz) pressure sensors are regularly reported in the literature to measure the overpressure of blast waves. However, the frequency bandwidth needed to accurately measure such overpressure has not yet been clearly discussed.

On models of blast overpressure effects to the thorax [PDF]

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2020
AbstractShock waves from explosions can cause lethal injuries to humans. Current state-of the-art models for pressure induced lung injuries were typically empirically derived and are only valid for detonations in free-field conditions. In built-up environments, though, pressure–time histories differ significantly from this idealization and not all ...

Probability Distribution and Determination of Blast Loading during Structural Blast Resistant Study

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
Explosion overpressure and its duration are important parameters describing blast loading. However, their values obtained using the currently available methods differ significantly.

Modeling the blast load induced by a close-in explosion considering cylindrical charge parameters

open access: yesDefence Technology, 2023
Structural damage is significantly influenced by the various parameters of a close-in explosion. To establish a close-in blast loading model for cylindrical charges according to these parameters, a series of field experiments and a systematic numerical ...

Neuronal Injury and Glial Changes Are Hallmarks of Open Field Blast Exposure in Swine Frontal Lobe. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
With the rapid increase in the number of blast induced traumatic brain injuries and associated neuropsychological consequences in veterans returning from the operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, the need to better understand the neuropathological sequelae

Effects of Entrance Shape and Blast Pocket on Internal Overpressure Mitigation for Protective Tunnels Exposed to External Detonation on the Ground

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
This study presents a numerical analysis to reduce the overpressure inside protective tunnels for external detonations. A three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model of a tunnel subjected to detonation for a hemispherical charge with a charge ...

Rapid release of tissue enzymes into blood after blast exposure: potential use as biological dosimeters. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Explosive blast results in multiple organ injury and polytrauma, the intensity of which varies with the nature of the exposure, orientation, environment and individual resilience.
