Simulations of seismic waves stimulated by aluminized explosive

In order to study the propagation of seismic waves stimulated by aluminized explosives, the commercial software-AutoDyn was used, in combination with Miller energy release model, to simulate the explosion in the sand. The results of simulation agreed well with the experiment: 0.7 kg aluminized explosive aluminized explosive was buried with a depth of 1 m in the sand, and its root mean square (RMS) amplitude of surface seismic waves was 1.23 times more than TNT; while the seismic energy density of waves passed down diminished exponentially with the depth, and seismic energy of Aluminized explosive passed down was 1.34 times more than TNT.
