Abstract

A numerical solution is obtained for the two-dimensional nonsteady problem of the motion of detonation products from a cylindrical high-explosive charge enclosed in a shell with the initiation of detonation at a central point in the end of the charge. The detonation products propagate in vacuum. The strength of the shell is not considered. A three-term equation of state is used for the detonation products.
