The aim of the study was to determine the parameters of a detonator generating a self-centring detonation wave, based on experimental and theoretical analysis. The methods for manufacturing selfcentring detonation wave generators available in literature were reviewed and a detonator comprised of two explosives was proposed. The detonator geometry was analysed for its ability to centre the detonation wave. A physical detonator model was created and the detonation wave front downstream of the detonator, analysed and the detonator’s capability to compensate an off-centre detonation initiation, evaluated. The wave fronts were recorded using pulsed x-ray radiography. The study showed that the proposed detonator provides a symmetrical initiation of the main charge for the initiation point (location) offset, lower than the assumed maximum offset.

The influence of different bend curvatures on the detonation wave propagation was analyzed by an advanced numerical simulation system. The mechanism of propagation properties is revealed by cellular structure, internal and external boundary pressure distribution, propagation process of detonation wave and chemical reaction. The cellular structure and detonation wave front of bend with different curvature are very different. The simulation results show that the detonation wave with regular cell structure propagating through the curved parts induces detonation cell size increased by diffraction near the inner wall while detonation reflected on the bottom surface resulting in decrease of cell size. Detonation wave was affected by the rarefaction wave and compression wave in the bent pipe. The pressure distribution of the bend shows that the peak pressure in the 450 curvature is the largest, which should be paid more attention in industrial design. The chemical reaction could indicate the propagation characteristics of detonation wave, and different propagation characteristics have different profiles of chemical components.

Based on the principle of the equivalent momentum of the corresponding elements for internal and external liners, annular shaped charge structure is proposed. The generatrix analytical equations for the external surfaces of the external liner and external charge are deduced. Experimental and numerical studies are conducted to investigate the formation and penetration process of the jet for the annular shaped charge under different initiation radiuses, and the initiation radius corresponding to the detonation wave front matched with the liner is optimized. At this radius, shaped charge can form an ideal cylindrical jet. Moreover, the diameter of the jet approximates the theoretical diameter of the jet, and has satisfactory symmetry and focus.
