Investigation of Shock Initiation in Covered Charges under Shock Wave and Fragment Impacts by Xingwang Chen, Jinxiang Wang, Kui Tang, Hongfei Wang, Yuanbo Li

“…In the next step, we developed a theoretical model to take into account the shock initiation of charges covered with defected metal plates. Explosive initiation standards coupled with shock wave evolution characteristics were applied to specify the crucial conditions of explosive detonation. …”

Using Radiogenic Noble Gas Nuclides to Identify and Characterize Rock Fracturing by W. Payton Gardner, Stephen J. Bauer, William M. Kibikas, Brynna Siluk, Scott Broome, Chris Strickland, Christine Johnson, Vince Vermeul

“…Fracture‐released radiogenic 4He is used to constrain the volume of newly created fractures with a model of helium release from fracturing. Explosive by‐product gas was observed in multiple locations both near and distal to the shot locations for both detonations. …”

The Vanishing Volcanic Geoheritage of a Key Scoria Cone and its Significance in Volcanic Hazard Resilience of the Active Monogenetic Volcanic Field near Al Madinah, Kingdom of Saud... by Karoly Nemeth, Mohammed Moufti, Mahmoud Ashor, Abdulrahman Sowaigh, Turki Hablil, Khalid Abdulhafez, Turki Sehli

“…The fact that in this location, unequivocal evidence emerged to show that explosive magma-water interaction driven eruptions occurred in the largely magmatic (“dry”) explosive style, and volcanic field evolution confirmed that this site has high geoheritage value. …”

SAR Image Simulation for Crater Terrain Using Formation Theory-Based Modeling and Hybrid Ray-Tracing by Ya-Ting Zhou, Yongsheng Zhou, Qiang Yin, Fei Ma, Fan Zhang

“…Initially, crater morphology models are established for surface, shallow burial, and deep burial explosions. This involves incorporating the explosive depth parameter into crater morphology modeling through crater formation theory and quantitatively assessing soil movement influenced by the explosion. …”

Calculation Model and Decoupling Coefficient Sensitivity Study of Periphery Hole for Eccentric Decoupled Charge in Highway Tunnels by Yuanqing Wang, Junfeng Liu

“…Besides, based on the proposed calculation model, blasting effect of a small-diameter EJ-102 emulsion explosive is calculated by using ANSYS LS-DYNA. The influence of decoupling coefficient, different rock grade, and different RQD value on blasting effect is obtained by sensitivity analysis of the simulated parameters. …”

Kreis in Verse: Robert Duncan and the Masters in Poetics Program at New College of California by Nicholas James Whittington

“…The paper plays on the aural cognates (to the ear most accustomed to English) of the German kreis and the French crise to show how this close circle of poets and scholars banded together to face the perceived crisis of professionalization and careerism represented by the explosive growth of the creative writing complex and the long devaluation of poetry as a vital form of knowledge.…”

Structural Response of Submerged Air-Backed Plates by Experimental and Numerical Analyses by Lloyd Hammond, Raphael Grzebieta

“…This paper presents the results of a series of small-scale underwater shock experiments that measured the structural responses of submerged, fully clamped, air-backed, steel plates to a range of high explosive charge sizes. The experimental results were subsequently used to validate a series of simulations using the coupled LS-DYNA/USA finite element/boundary element codes. …”

Jean-Jacques et Hippolyte, deux commandeurs meneurs de grève, ou comment sonner l’alarme à la sucrerie des Manquets (Saint-Domingue, 1782) by Jean-Louis Donnadieu

“…The analysis of these letters, however, completed with the examination of other documents from other sources, shows that the overseer’s responsibility was far from being insignificant and that his way of running the estate, from 1779 to 1789, was very approximate, leading to an explosive situation. This didn’t escape the notice of the leaders of the August 1791 forthcoming slaves’ riot.…”

Reconstruction of Reinforced Concrete Structures on The Example of Bridge Spans Damaged as a Result of Dynamic Impacts by Oleg A. Simakov

“…The problem of restoring reinforced concrete structures that have received dynamic impacts (emergency as a result of collisions with vehicles, damage as a result of dismantling nearby structures, explosive impacts) is quite an urgent issue. The current regulatory documents regarding the restoration and reinforcement of reinforced concrete structures do not fully correspond to the issues related to the results of dynamic impacts that have characteristic features. …”

Modelling the Diffusion of Investment Decisions on Modular Social Networks by Xiaokang Cheng, Narisa Zhao

“…The results show that both modularity and the clustering coefficient have an impact on the diffusion velocity and scale and that the impact is most evident at the stage of explosive growth. The negative influence of a large modularity can be hardly mitigated by adjusting other factors. …”
