Mathematical modeling of symphatetic detonation in engineer and artillery support with variable mass active charge and distance effects.

Abstract

The work deals with the symphatetic detonation from active to passive charge, which is an area in both engineer and artillery support. The aim of the work is to mathematically model the effect of the active charge on the passive charge due to the variable mass of the active charge and the distance from the active to the passive charge. This modelling is then applicable in all engineer support tasks where explosives are involved. The contribution of the work lies in suggestions for the reduction of firing mechanism and also in suggestions for the establishment of passage lines in obstacles. The calculations become the basis for determining proposals for establishing passage lines in minefields by artillery.
