Abstract

Summary Described are tests of cylindrical high explosive charges with an L=D ratio of 2, centrally detonating in steel tubes of different radii and wall thicknesses to measure the bulge respectively the damaging effects of these steel tubes. The results can be described with analytical equations. For a protecting container with minimum weight the radius should be as large as possible, because the necessary tube wall thickness is quadratically decreasing and therefore the weight of the tube is linearly decreasing with increasing tube radius.
