Abstract

Amplitude characteristics of ground vibration caused by fuel air explosive(FAE)explosion are studied in this paper. Under the identical charge mass and experimental field conditions, experiments are done to make comparison between the explosion seismic effects caused by FAE and TNT explosive, obtaining time histories of vertical ground vibrations. From the analysis of experimental results, it shows that FAE explosion produces much higher peak particle strength of the seismic effect . The presented result provides very useful knowledge to learn the mechanics effect caused by FAE explosion.
