Abstract

High-speed imaging can provide invaluable information during any explosive testing. An explosive detonation includes a shock and stress wave propagation phase and a fragmentation phase. In order to analyze what happens in a detonation event a high-speed camera is used to visualize the two different phases. This visualization capability allows for analysis of the explosive detonation. The focus of this study is to measure the performance of the explosive using ultra-high-speed photography.
