High Velocity Shock Testing, Equipment and Methods

Description: The need for special high velocity shock testing is pointed out and equipment that has been developed to meet these needs is discussed. The concept of velocity-change and its importance in shock-testing technology is brought out. The three types of equipment discussed are: accelerated drop testers, pneumatic actuators, and air guns. Examples of each type and their capabilities and limitations are presented.

Time-Dependent Thermal-Neutron Energy Spectra in a Monoatomic Heavy Gas

Description: The time-dependent thermal neutron energy spectra, for times greater thsn the slowing-down time, were generated in a monoatomic heavy gas using multigroup formalism. These spectra were obtained for infinite as well as finite media of Be and graphite. The behavior of asymptotic energy spectra during the last stage of neutron thermalization and diffusion periods was studied. The thermalization time constant for the establishment of the final Maxwellian velocity distribution of neutrons, in a mono… more
