 | Use of a Sheath in Concealing Underground Explosions Author : Viswanathan, K. Source : Defence Science Journal ; Vol:16(4) ; 1966 ; pp 197-202 Subject : 620.261 Explosives Keywords : Seismic signals;Cavity walls;Chemical explosions Abstract : A theoretical formula is obtained for the decoupling of the seismic signals from underground explosions due to the introduction of a sheath of a stronger material on the cavity walls. The elastic-elastic decoupling clearly enhances the value of the elastic-nonelastic decoupling factor already known. The theory has applications in the concealing of underground nuclear and chemical explosions. |
