  • Mechanisms and Scoring of Explosion Induced Trauma
    CRANFIELD UNIVERSITY CRANFIELD DEFENCE AND SECURITY CENTRE FOR DEFENCE ENGINEERING PhD THESIS Academic Year 2013-2014 Tamlin Whyte Adequacy of Test Standards in Evaluating Blast Overpressure (BOP) Protection for the Torso Supervisor: Prof I Horsfall June 2014 This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Crown Copyright 2014. All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced without the written permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The blast wave emanating from an explosion produces an almost instantaneous rise in pressure which can then cause Blast Overpressure (BOP) injuries to nearby persons. BOP injury criteria are specified in test standards to relate BOP measurements in a testing environment to a risk of BOP injury. This study considered the adequacy of test standards in evaluating BOP protection concepts for the torso. Four potential BOP injury scenarios were studied to determine the likelihood of injury and the adequacy of test standards for appropriate protection concepts. In the case of vehicle blast, BOP injury is unlikely and test standards are adequate. In the scenario involving an explosive charge detonated within a vehicle, and the close proximity to a hand grenade scenario, test standards are not available. The demining scenario was identified as of importance as test standards are available, but do not mandate the evaluation of BOP protection. A prototype South African Torso Surrogate (SATS) was developed to explore this scenario further. The SATS was required to be relatively inexpensive and robust. The SATS was cast from silicone (selected to represent body tissue characteristics) using a torso mould containing a steel frame and instrumented with chest face-on pressure transducer and accelerometer.
