U.S. NAVY STRUCTURES. ANNEX 3.2 OF SCIENTIFIC DIRECTOR'S REPORT OF ATOMIC WEAPON TESTS AT ENIWETOK, 1951

Description: Structures are subjected to a 50-kt blast, in order to obtain fundamental data on structures subjected to blast loading, to observe the response of the structures under this loading, and to determine the relative blast-resistance merits of several structural types. Modes of failure are determined. Shaped structures are found to be superdor to rectangular structures. Earth cover for the structures is also found to increase the blast resistance. It is found that standard Navy heavy bomb-proof str… more

F.C.D.A. Family Shelter Evaluation

Description: In order to determine the effects of atomic explosions on small civil defense shelters for family use, 29 simple structures were built along an arc 1200 ft from the target point and exposed to Buster Bursts B, C, and D. The structures were of four basic types; covered-trench, metal-arch, wood-arch, and basement lean-to. Because of poor cohesive properties of the soil, much of the earth cover on the shelters was removed by the first shot. Since test procedures prevented restoration of structures… more

The Density of Uranyl Sulfate Solutions and the Determination of Uranium Concentration by Density Measurements

Description: A study of the density of aqueous uranyl solutions is described which was had as its primary purpose the development of an analytical method for the determination of uranium in relatively dilute solutions of this salt. These solutions contain trace amounts of contaminating elements. The presence of small amounts of free sulfuric acid and moderate variations in the temperature at which density measurements are made can be compensated for by the use of equations provided for the calculation of ur… more
