Download or read book Numerical Modeling of Explosion Waves written by James R. Houston and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical models are presented that calculate waves generated by an explosion and propagate them across deep and shallow water and through a wave-breaking zone to shore. The models are verified by comparisons with waves measured during both small- and large-scale field tests that used high explosives to generate waves. Detailed documentation of the models and sample calculations are provided. (Author).
