Abstract
We studied attenuation characteristics of shock waves induced by a donor charge and the sensitivity of an acceptor for optimal design of a TBI (Through-bulkhead initiator). The attenuation behavior of shock waves was studied by measuring free surface velocity using a VISAR (Velocity Interferometer System for Any Reflector), and the sensitivity of the acceptor explosives was analyzed via SSGT (Small Scale Gap Test). It was found that the acceptor sensitivity obtained by the SSGT may be inappropriate for the design of the small-scale explosive devices such as TBI due to the different shock duration time.
