This book was released on 1953 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of UPSHOT-KNOTHOLE Project 3.20 was to determine the effects of air burst nuclear weapons on selected items of signal communication equipment. Typical items of this equipment, such as would be found in a communications zone or field army area, were oriented in test groups at varying distances from GZ to obtain an anticipated damage spread from severe to negligible. Participation in Shot 9 consisted of 93 such test groups. Participation in Shot 10 was limited to 17 test groups because of shortage of funds, materiel, and labor. Photographic records of damage, and evaluations of the levels of damage, were made by project personnel. The anticipated spread from negligible to severe damage was obtained for the majority of the test groups. Recorded values, and predicted values (from TM23-200), for thermal flux, peak overpressures, and initial gamma radiation were in close agreement in both Shots 9 and 10. The damage from Shot 9 was about what was expected. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of a very current interdisciplinary book covers both technical material and social issues, to give readers of all backgrounds a sense of the overall implications of the arms race. Weapons are the primary focus of the book, with the history of their development and nuclear politics included in the introductory chapters. There is a thorough discussion of global nuclear exchange, which considers the consequences of an all-out nuclear war, the psychological impact of the threat and actual nuclear war; the atomic bombings of Japan; and the biological effects of radiation from nuclear weapons.

This book was released on 2005-10-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underground facilities are used extensively by many nations to conceal and protect strategic military functions and weapons' stockpiles. Because of their depth and hardened status, however, many of these strategic hard and deeply buried targets could only be put at risk by conventional or nuclear earth penetrating weapons (EPW). Recently, an engineering feasibility study, the robust nuclear earth penetrator program, was started by DOE and DOD to determine if a more effective EPW could be designed using major components of existing nuclear weapons. This activity has created some controversy about, among other things, the level of collateral damage that would ensue if such a weapon were used. To help clarify this issue, the Congress, in P.L. 107-314, directed the Secretary of Defense to request from the NRC a study of the anticipated health and environmental effects of nuclear earth-penetrators and other weapons and the effect of both conventional and nuclear weapons against the storage of biological and chemical weapons. This report provides the results of those analyses. Based on detailed numerical calculations, the report presents a series of findings comparing the effectiveness and expected collateral damage of nuclear EPW and surface nuclear weapons under a variety of conditions.

Book excerpt: This book compiles a variety of experimental data on blast waves. The book begins with an introductory chapter and proceeds to the topic of blast wave phenomenology, with a discussion on Rankine-Hugoniot equations and the Friedlander equation, used to describe the pressure-time history of a blast wave. Additional topics include arrival time measurement, the initiation of detonation by exploding wires, a discussion of TNT equivalency, and small scale experiments. Gaseous and high explosive detonations are covered as well. The topics and experiments covered were chosen based on the comparison of used scale sizes, from small to large. Each characteristic parameter of blast waves is analyzed and expressed versus scaled distance in terms of energy and mass. Finally, the appendix compiles a number of polynomial laws that will prove indispensable for engineers and researchers.

Wilson and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews and summarizes an existing large body of work on the effects of thermal radiation alone and thermal radiation combined with air blast effects on military structures or systems. All nuclear weapon phenomena were considered in order to find the ranges where thermal and thermal-blast effects are the most important. Methodology for computing thermal and thermal-blast effects is summarized and references are given to provide the omitted details. The methods given were all used to compute effects in simple structural elements which are taken to be components of larger structures or systems. Graphs for thermal effects are presented which allow estimates of the resulting peak temperatures but no corresponding result exists for stresses due to thermal-blast effects. Instead, examples are given to illustrate general principles and computer programs are referenced for the solving of specific problems.

Download or read book Cumulative Thermal Effects in a Multiburst Scenario written by Barbara A. Hall and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis sought to develop a computer program to model the cumulative effects of nuclear fireball thermal radiation. The scenario studied was the Peacekeeper Dense Pack missile system. The missile field was subjected to walk attack of 2 MT weapons every two seconds. Aiming error of the incoming RV was modeled using a 10-cell CEP area around the designated ground zero, and the probability of damage due to an RV was calculated using a cumulative log- normal distribution function. To model the missile skin temperature rise, an energy balance was made over a unit area of skin surface and then solved using the thin skin approximation and finite differences. The maximum temperature reached was used to calculate the probability of damage to the missile skin. The amount of thermal radiation emitted from each burst independently. Cumulative thermal effects thus proved to have a greater region of no survival than noncumulative thermal effects and also blast effects.
