Abstract

The understanding of the pressure associated with air blast, which travels through air, and its effect on surface and underground structures is highly important. It is necessary to determine the pressure change with time and distance for a computer simulation of the explosion impact on a structure. From the previous studies, many empirical equations for estimating the parameters related to the pressure change. In this study, the empirical equations for predicting peak overpressure, duration of positive phase, impulse, minimum negative pressure, duration of negative pressure, arrival time, and decay constant were reviewed and analyzed. Also, the pressure changes predicted from the Kingery equation, which is the most commonly used, and from the other empirical equations were compared.

공기를 통해 이동하는 폭발파에 의한 압력 및 압력에 의해 지표 및 지하구조물에 미치는 영향을 이해하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 폭발의 충격이 구조물에 미치는 영향을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션하기 위해서는 시간과 거리에 따른 압력의 변화를 결정하여야 한다. 기존의 연구를 통해 압력의 변화와 관련되는 인자들을 추정하기 위한 여러 경험식들이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 최대압력, 양압지속기간, 임펄스, 최소음압, 음압지속기간, 폭발파 도착시간과 감쇠상수를 예측하는 경험식들을 조사 분석하였으며 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 Kingery 경험식과 다른 경험식에 의한 압력 변화를 비교하였다.
