ABSTRACT:
In order to evaluate competing explosive trains at explosive interfaces, at least one penalty barrier is inserted in the gap between a donor explosive component and an acceptor explosive component. Each of the barriers, if more than one, has a first layer and a second layer. The first layer is selected to have a shock impedance greater than the second layer so that a shock pulse is attenuated to a desired degree. Additional barriers can be added to increase the attenuation. A use of this device allows the shock intensities to be varied without varying wave shape or duration and further allows use of established shock equation of states of materials.
