Abstract
A method is described for determination of shock wave parameters (wave and mass velocity) in heterogeneous explosives. The example of exciting explosion in an octogene composition by weak shock waves is used to demonstrate the possibility of reliable measurement of the velocity of the initiating shock wave, the depth at which detonation develops, and the extent of the predetonation zone, as well as the character of the change in shock wave velocity upon propagation through the specimen.
