Recently, the demand for pollution-free demolition work of old reinforced concrete and steel structure has rapidly increased as the redevelopment of urban area has been accelerated. This study deals with linear shape charges for explosive jet cutting on steel structure. We have tested material and shape of steel structure, characteristics of thickness and strength, shape of linear shape charges, type of shape charges, cumulative charges, type of liner, stand-off distance, detonation method. effect of sound and vibration by air blast in explosive jet cutting method. So, We developed linear shape charges in order to take advantage of optimum explosive jet cutting condition. Shape charges were made of PETN explosives. We obtained the experimental formula to decide the amount of explosive needed for thickness of steel structure plate. There are prospects for application of the explosion curving technology under the open space conditions for dismantling the steel structure and steel bridge, scrapped old boats, which are going out of service.

The problem of non-ideal detonation propagation velocities in heterogeneous hybrid mixtures is studied in the case of a high explosive with suspended fine aluminum (Al) particles. Since there exist difference in the time scales of the characteristic induction and combustion of High Explosives and solid particles, the process of energy release behind the leading shock front occurs over an extended period of time. The problem is analyzed by the theory of the mechanics of multiphase media with mass, momentum and heat exchanges between particles and gases. The numerical results match the available experimental results of heavily aluminized (5~25% Al weight) HMX explosive obtained previously.

As the national economic growth and the rapid increase in industrial structures are aging, the demand for removing steel structures is increasing, and research on improving the penetration performance of the linear shape charge explosives. In the study, numerical analyses were performed on the effect of the type of explosive used in the self-made shape charging container and the initiation method on the cutting performance of the steel plate and the effect on the shaped explosive installed close to it. ANSYS LS-DYNA, which can analyze the large deformation problem of materials due to explosion, was used, and an ALE(Arbitrary-Lagrange-Eulerian) model was applied that enables interlocking analysis of gases, liquids, and solid.

The dispersion pattern of a near miss neutralizer has a great effect on the disablement of a threatening projectile. This study numerically investigated the dispersion pattern of cylindrical tungsten impactors by an explosion in the near miss neutralizer. The mass and shape of the explosive were considered as influencing factors on the dispersion pattern. The explosives were set using two shape models: a parallel shape with the same upper and lower thicknesses and a tapered shape with different upper and lower thicknesses. In the simulation results, the dispersed impactors formed a ring-shaped pattern on a two-dimensional plane in an arbitrary space. In addition, the fire net area increased with the explosive mass when the explosive shapes were identical. In particular, the tapered shape explosive formed a larger fire net area than the parallel shape explosive. Based on the analysis of the fire net area along with the dispersion density, both the explosive mass and shape representing the physical characteristics should be considered for controlling the dispersion pattern of impactors in a near miss neutralizer.

We have compared a special character(pressure of explosion, gas volume, energy of explosion, temperature of explosion, strength) of different three emulsion explosives which is different velocity by Nitrodyn program that is calculated explosion reaction. We have analyzed the character of the vibration from a vibration data which is a result from test blasting in different velocity of detonation for three emulsion explosives of the same size(17mm) in the same rock. As a result, the vibration is decreased when the velocity of detonation is decreased within 40m from origin of explosion but it is familiar character over 40m, so there isn't much affect the velocity of detonation in decreased vibration over 40m.

A study about economical blasting methods which can improve fragmentation and save explosive in blasting is in progress. One of the blasting methods is an air decking method making air layers in boreholes. However, it is difficult to apply this method to the boreholes filled with water. In this study, an underwater Air Tube was manufactured and tried to place it at a certain location in a water filled borehole. It was found that the application of underwater air tube in wet boreholes could improve the fragmentation and save 10~15% of the explosives.

일반적으로 장공발파(長孔發破) 방법(Long hole blasting method)은 그동안 주로 대규모 채탄막장이나 댐 기초굴착, 광산 등에서 행하여져 왔으나 최근 토목터널에서 시공 효율성 및 경제성을 목적으로 관심이 높아지고 있다. 기존의 터널설계 패턴은 I -Type을 기준으로 3.5~3.8m 천공이며 신공법 적용시 최대 4.Om까지 설계되는 것이 보통이었다. 과거 착암장비는 천공장이 늘어남으로서 슬러지에 의한 천공속도가 저하되어 천공비가 증가하기 때문에 빠른 슬러지 배제가 필요하고 Rod의 휨 현상에 의한 천공오차의 증대를 초래할 수 있는 단점이 있었다. 그러나 최근 장비의 발달로 인하여 천공각도 및 천공장 등을 Computer로 모니터링하여 제어할 수 있어 정밀한 천공이 가능하여 졌고 또한, 고성능 에멀젼계 폭약(Super Emulsion)의 개발로 그동안 극 경암터널에서 에멀젼계 폭약의 단점으로 여겨졌던 비 장약량의 증대와 사압현상의 발생, 굴진효율 저하문제론 극복할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구는 현재 건설중인 대상현장을 중심으로 장공 터널발파의 효율성과 경제성을 분석하고 나아가 암질에 따른 새로운 Type별 설계기준을 마련하는 기초자료로서 활용하고자 하였다. 된 연구의 대상현장은 충북 괴산군 영풍면 소재 중부내륙(여주-구미간) 고속도로 제 9공구 이화터널 건설공사현장으로 $\varphi{102mm}$ 무 장약공 Cylinder 4공을 이용한 심발법을 사용하였으며 천공장은 최대 5.0m로 2000년 11일 15일에서 동년 12월 15일까지 31일간 총 112회의 시험발파를 실시하여 평균 92%의 높은 굴진 효율을 기록하였다.

발파후에 2차연소 또는 폭발(이하, 2차연소라 한다. )이 일어났다는 사실은 폭약이 폭발후에 어떤 가연성가스가 발생하고 그 가연성가스가 잔존하는 폭발열 또는 기타의 점화원에 의해 연소되었음을 의미한다. 폭약이 폭발하였을 때, 발생 가능한 가연성물질은 유리탄소, 일산화탄소, 수소 등으로 추정할 수 있는데 실험결과에서는 가연성물질의 주성분이 수소인 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 에멀존계 함수폭약이 산소평형, 알루미늄함량, 알루미늄형태와 크기 그리고 포장지의 두께에 따라 수소가 발생되는 양을 가스크로마토그라피를 이용하여 측정하였다. 상기의 열거한 요인들은 모두 수소발생량과 관계가 있는데, 이중에서도 가장 중요한 요인은 산소평형과 알루미늄의 함량인 것으로 나타났다. 한 예로 알루미늄이 15%가 포함되고 산소평형이 -10인 에멀존계 함수폭약은 폭발후에 19.4%의 수소를 함유하고 있는 후가스를 발생시켰으며 이 가스를 포집하여 공기중에 방출시키면서 성냥불을 가까이 하였더니 연소가 되었다. 따라서 에너지를 높이기 위하여 알루미늄의 함량을 높이고 산소평형을 지나치게 마이너스로 설계한다면, 2차연소는 언제든지 발생할 가능성이 있다고 판단된다. 알루미늄의 함량을 가능한 적게, 산소평형을 가능한 0에 가깝게 설계해야 만이 2차연소 현상을 방지할 수 있을 것이며 ㄸ한 최적의 설계뿐만이 아니라 정확한 제조와 품질검사도 2차연소 현상을 방지하는데 중요한 몫을 할 것으로 판단된다.

The shaped charge was used in explosive demolition of a steel frame structure, but it was often not used because it was limited to use and impossible to supply at domestic and overseas. Existing linear shaped charge did not have sufficient cutting performance to cut steel frame structures with a huge scale and thick steel plate. To solve these problems, we produced a device that could generate metal jets using industrial explosives of high detonation velocity and pressure. In this study, we made a charging container of three types which applicable to explosive demolition of steel frame structures. The experiment of cutting performances was carried out to evaluate the effect of cutting of charging containers on the various thicknesses of the H-beam and steel plate. As a result of the experiment, sufficient cutting performance was confirmed.

We present a model for simulating high energy laser heating of metal for ignition of energetic materials. The model considers effect of ablation of steel plate with long laser pulses and continuous lasers of several kilowatts and the thermal response of well-characterized high explosives for ignition. Since there is enough time for the thermal wave to propagate into the target and to create a region of hot spot in the high explosives, electron thermal diffusion of ultra-short (femto- and pico-second) lasing is ignored; instead, heat diffusion of absorbed laser energy in the solid target is modeled with thermal decomposition kinetic models of high explosives. Numerically simulated pulsed-laser heating of solid target and thermal explosion of RDX, TATB, and HMX are compared to experimental results. The experimental and numerical results are in good agreement.
