Hi all,

Given the same weight of similar explosives but at different distance from the target, is there any relationship on this with the duration of the 1st shock wave? (Assume peak pressures can be obtained)

Thanks

Sure.

Expanding spherical wave into a dissipative media. Consider what the sound of a lightning strike might be at different distances.

Not sure what the exact numbers might be...
