The clouds formed through the injection of SAD and SAD/liquid epoxypropane samples into the experimental tube. Explosions of the SAD/air mixture were initiated using a 7-m-long EPM/air cloud explosion ignited by a 40-J electric spark. Explosions in SAD/EPM/air clouds were initiated using a 1.2-m EPM/air cloud explosion ignited by a 40-J electric spark initiated using a 40-J electric spark. Self-sustained detonation waves formed in SAD/EPM/air mixtures instead of in SAD/air mixtures. The stages and characteristics of the DDT process in SAD/air and SAD/EPM/air mixtures were studied and analyzed. Self-sustained detonation was evident from the existence of a transverse wave and a cellular structure. Moreover, a retonation wave formed during the DDT process in SAD/EPM/air clouds.展开更多

The magnitude of this kind of polytrauma is complex due to the basic physics of blast and the surrounding environments. Therefore, development of stable, reproducible and controllable animal model using an ideal blast simulation device is the key of blast injury research. The present review addresses the modeling of blast injury and applications of shock tubes.展开更多
