Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We analyze data from two sets of decoupled chemical explosions. NORSAR has obtained data from seven decoupled chemical explosions conducted from 1987-2002 in Alvdalen, Sweden, recorded both in he near field and on regional seismic stations NORES, HAGFORS, and NORSAR. The explosions were conducted in three granite chambers at a depth of approximately 100 meters in chambers with volumes of 200, 300 and 1000 m and yields ranging from 2500 kg to 10,000 kg. The smallest explosion in the largest chamber is almost fully decoupled while the other explosions are partially coupled, overdriven by up to a factor of 25. The data show that decoupling remains fairly constant for overdrive up to about a factor of 10, then decreases rapidly at higher yields. 1D and 3D simulations of these explosions are performed to model the data. IDG has digitized a set of surface seismic data recorded from a series of Soviet high-explosive cavity decoupling tests conducted in a mine in Kirghizia in the summer of 1960.

Book Synopsis Analysis of Two Decoupled Explosion Simulations by : Thomas C. Bache
Download or read book Analysis of Two Decoupled Explosion Simulations written by Thomas C. Bache and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two axisymmetric ground motion calculations were carried out by Applied Theory, Incorporated to simulate 25 kt decoupled nuclear explosions in mined cavities in salt. One cavity was spherical with a radius of 66 meters while the other was a 3/1 aspect ratio ellipsoid of revolution. Both had the same volume. Results of the two calculations were analyzed to determine the character of the teleseismic body and surface waves. The spherically symmetric portion of the field is slightly (20-25%) smaller for the spherical cavity. Compared to results of tamped explosions, the decoupling factor for this case is about 140 at one Hertz. The radiation from the ellipsoidal cavity is substantially perturbed from spherical symmetry; the maximum S wave amplitudes are nearly three times as large as maximum P wave amplitudes at 1.0 Hz. However, theoretical body and surface wave seismograms indicate that the M sub B and M sub S values are not substantially different for the two cavities.
Book Synopsis Nonlinear Finite Difference Simulations of Cavity Decoupled Explosions in Salt and Tuff by : J. L. Stevens
Download or read book Nonlinear Finite Difference Simulations of Cavity Decoupled Explosions in Salt and Tuff written by J. L. Stevens and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear finite difference simulations are performed to model the seismic source functions for decoupled, partially coupled, and overdecoupled explosions in air-filled cavities in salt and unsaturated tuff emplacement media. The tuff simulations are performed in an 11 meter cavity under conditions similar to the Mill Yard experiment. The salt simulations are performed in a 17 meter cavity under conditions similar to the Sterling test. The maximum low frequency decoupling factor in the tuff simulations is approximately 40. The low value of the decoupling factor is the result of the low shear modulus and poor tamped coupling of this material. The maximum decoupling factor is nearly twice as large as would be expected for a linear material model because the shock wave induces pore crushing that leads to a substantial loss of energy in the nonlinear case. An important result of this research is that the low frequency source amplitude increases very slowly as the yield is increased above the yield required for full decoupling. At high frequencies, there is little difference between simulations with linear and nonlinear material models for decoupled or partially coupled explosions, except for attenuation due to pore crushing. Keywords: Seismology, Nuclear explosion simulation. (aw).

Book Synopsis LLNL State-of-the-art Codes for Source Calculations by :
Download or read book LLNL State-of-the-art Codes for Source Calculations written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The explosion-source region is defined as the region surrounding an underground explosion that cannot be described by elastic or anelastic theory. This region extends typically to ranges on the order of 1 km/kt. For the simulation or analysis of seismic signals, what is required is the time resolved motion and stress state at the inelastic boundary. Various analytic approximations have been made for these boundary conditions, but since they rely on near-field empirical data they cannot be expected to reliably extrapolate to different explosion sites. More important, without some knowledge of the initial energy density and the characteristics of the medium immediately surrounding the explosion, these simplified models are unable to distinguish chemical from nuclear explosions, identify cavity decoupling, or account for such phenomena as anomalous dissipation via pore collapse. The purpose here is to document the state-of-the-art codes at LLNL involved in simulating underground (chemical and nuclear) explosions and, in so doing, present an overview of the physics. In what follows, the authors first describe the fundamental equations involved, discuss solution methods, coordinate frames and dimensionality. Then they identify the codes used at LLNL and their limitations. A companion report will describe the factors that most influence the seismic response, i.e., the source properties important for discrimination. That report will emphasize the coupling between the rock properties and the characteristics of the explosion cavity.

Book Synopsis Monitoring a Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty by : Eystein S. Husebye
Download or read book Monitoring a Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty written by Eystein S. Husebye and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 843 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An international treaty banning the testing of any nuclear device in any environment - a comprehensive test ban treaty (CTBT) - has been on the political agenda for nearly 40 years. Objections to a CTBT have been political, technical, or a combination of both. However, the possibilities seem better after the end of the Cold War. In the prevailing, cooperative disarmament climate a CTBT appears likely to be approved by most countries in 1996. Hence the great current interest in monitoring technologies and capabilities. Such issues are comprehensively addressed here, a preamble being devoted to the political developments and setbacks over the past 40 years. Since seismic means are considered the dominant monitoring element, they are explored in detail. Contributions cover network deployments, advanced signal processing, wave propagation in heterogeneous media, and seismic source representations, and a variety of techniques for source classification (including neural networks). Complementary monitoring techniques, such as hydroacoustics, radionuclides and infrasound, are also summarised. The IAEA operation for monitoring compliance with the Non-Proliferation Treaty is also presented. The book also includes eyewitness accounts of the Soviet 50 Mt megabomb development and test, as well as the efforts made by the state to monitor the nuclear test programmes of the western powers. Includes some 33 articles written by distinguished scientists active in CTBT monitoring research for decades.
