Blast loading on model dummies in two-room shelters. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7116306

Experimental results obtained from the blast loading of model dummies inside scaled two-room shelters are given for 20 and 49% open front walls. The translational velocities of the model dummies are given as a function of shelter configuration and the experimental overpressure levels of 3 to 10 psi. The results obtained are scaled up to give predictions for full size shelters.
