Experimental investigation on dynamic response of chamber to simulate deepwater explosive

Experimental investigation was conducted for the dynamic response of a real spherical explosive chamber that can simulate 200 m deepwater explosive loaded 10 g TNT equivalent. The vibration characteristics and dynamic strength of the chamber were analyzed by measuring the strain profiles of six characteristic points on the chamber. The research results revealed the rule of the dynamic response of the chamber on different ex- plosive loads and static pressures. It provides references for the design and development of the chamber to simu- late deepwater explosion.
