Abstract

The geotechnical centrifuge has been shown to be a very valuable experimental technique in the investigation of explosive and impact cratering behavior. A brief summary of recent experiments is given along with a pertinent bibliography. These works have served to establish the practicality of performing dynamic experiments on the centrifuge as well as to provide a theoretical basis for their interpretation.

Scaling Considerations for Dynamic Experiments

St. Louis, Missouri

The geotechnical centrifuge has been shown to be a very valuable experimental technique in the investigation of explosive and impact cratering behavior. A brief summary of recent experiments is given along with a pertinent bibliography. These works have served to establish the practicality of performing dynamic experiments on the centrifuge as well as to provide a theoretical basis for their interpretation.
