The CEA conducted pyrotechnic experiments at the location, using shock tubes and similar apparatus to study high-pressure shock waves in uranium.
12.
Examples of impulse facilities are the shock tube, the shock tunnel, the expansion tube, the expansion tunnel, and the Ludwieg tube.
13.
The correct initiation source could for example be tar-fuse for time delay, or a Shock tube detonator to name a few.
14.
Because the molar volume of gas is much less, the jet effect is a fraction of that for compressed-gas driven shock tubes.
15.
The first major series of experiments was FUJI-1, a blow-down system powered from a shock tube at the Tokyo Institute of Technology.
16.
Shock tubes can be used to experimentally determine which materials and designs would be best suited to the job of attenuating blast waves.
17.
Two years later, he conducted experiments in fluid dynamics with an advanced design shock tube facility put together under Lincoln Smith at Michigan.
18.
A particularly useful form of temperature jump apparatus is a shock tube, which can rapidly jump a gas's temperature by more than 1000 degrees.
19.
The characteristics of a dielectric barrier discharge ( DBD ) plasma actuator when exposed to an unsteady flow generated by a shock tube is examined.
20.
There are alternatives to the classical shock tube; for laboratory experiments at very high pressure, shock waves can also be created using high-intensity short-pulse lasers.
