In this study, an explosion combustion phenomenon of ammonium nitrate (ρ=1.7kg/cm3) was used instead of the explosive PETN and the ultra-high-speed destruction phenomenon of aluminum cylinder was analyzed. The mix powder obtained by mixing aluminum powder (ρ=2.7kg/cm3) and ammonium nitrate was used instead of the explosive PETN, and an explosive combustion phenomenon was generated using copper wire explosion by high-voltage capacitor bank (40kV, 12.5 /F). Ammonium nitrate and aluminum powder are kneaded in a combination ratio of 5 : 1 in mass. An aluminum cylinder was destroyed by the phenomenon. The experiments were conducted using various diameters of ammonium nitrate particle and the photographs of the phenomenon were taken by the high-speed camera (IMACON468) and the high-speed video camera (HPV-1). The fragments of aluminum cylinder were collected and their dimensions were measured. The explosion phenomenon and fragments were compared with the result by explosive PETN. This paper presents these experiments and analysis result. And, hydro codes have been applied to simulate the deformation behavior of the aluminum cylinder.

This paper presents the design of a compact size projectile accelerator, and its application. To meet the various needs such as a compact body size to use under various experimental conditions, an easy maintenance for repetitive experiments during a certain period, and a capability of the velocity control, the compact accelerators were newly designed with a direct explosive drive method. Two different types of accelerator were designed: a PMMA accelerator and a metal accelerator. The pictures of the projectile shoot using the designed accelerators were recorded by SHIMADZU HyperVision HPV-1 high-speed video camera. As a result, it was recognized that the PMMA accelerator was failed to accelerate the projectile, while the metal accelerator succeeded to accelerate it effectively. The accelerating performance of the metal accelerator was further investigated. The explosives for projectile acceleration were Emulsion explosive and Composition C4 explosive weighing 5 to 35g. It was found that the metal accelerator has the capability to control the projectile velocity adjusting the weight of the explosives, and there is an approximate linear correlation between them in our experimental range. A series of impact tests on 5052S aluminum alloy targets was examined using the accelerator.

The Impact

Small-scale blast tests were carried out to observe and measure the influence of sandy soil towards explosive blast intensity. The tests were to simulate blast impact imparted by anti-vehicular landmine to a lightweight armoured vehicle (LAV). Time of occurrence of the three phases of detonation phase in soil with respect to upward translation time of the test apparatus were recorded using high-speed video camera. At the same time the target plate acceleration was measured using shock accelerometer. It was observed that target plate deformation took place at early stage of the detonation phase before the apparatus moved vertically upwards. Previous data of acceleration-time history and velocity-time history from air blast detonation were compared. It was observed that effects of soil funnelling on blast wave together with the impact from soil ejecta may have contributed to higher blast intensity that characterized detonation in soil, where detonation in soil demonstrated higher plate velocity compared to what occurred in air blast detonation.

Solidification Crack

Solidification cracking during welding is very serious problem for practical use. Therefore, there are so many reports concerning solidification cracking. Normally, solidification cracking susceptibility of material is quantitatively evaluated using Trans-Varestraint test. On the other hand, local solidification cracking strain was tried to measure precisely using in-situ observation method, called MISO method about 30 years ago. Recently, digital high-speed video camera develops very fast and its image quality is very high. Therefore, we have started to observe solidification crack using in site observation method. In this paper, the local critical strain of a solidification crack was measured and the high temperature ductility curves of weld metals having different dilution ratios and different grain sizes to evaluate quantitatively the effects of dilution ratio and grain size on solidification cracking susceptibility by using an improved in situ observation method.

Set Up

At present, a commercially available magnetic barrel machine equipped with permanent magnets has some faults arising from constructional reason. That is, grinding or finishing ability is different from place to place in the machining region, resulting in the limitation on the region we can use in the container of workpieces. Therefore, in this research, authors made the new magnetic barrel machine equipped with three dimensional (3D) magnet arrangement to overcome these faults. The grinding ability of the new 3D magnetic barrel machine converted was experimentally examined, and compared with that of the traditional magnetic barrel machine. As a result, it was shown that we can use much broader region in the new 3D machine. It was also shown that the grinding ability became higher. The distribution of barrel media in action was recorded by means of a high speed video camera. It was clarified that the media rose up higher and were distributed more uniformly in the container by the effect of the magnet block newly set up. It was supposed that this must be the reason for the above-mentioned improvement of grinding ability.

Minimum Film Thickness

In a previous investigation, grease thickener fibres were tracked as they passed through an elastohydrodynamic (EHD) contact in pure rolling using interferometry in a standard ball-and-disc apparatus. In order to capture single thickener fibres, a high-speed video camera was used. Here, the experiments have been repeated introducing different amounts of side slip for different rolling speeds and a faster video camera capable of capturing 4500 frames/s. The contact was lubricated with a continuous supply of grease. Two greases, based on the same synthetic poly(α-olefin) but thickened with Li-12-OH and lithium complex soap respectively, were studied. It was observed that the thickener fibres were stretched both before entering the contact and as they passed through it. Fibres seem to avoid the minimum film thickness regions and, if they enter, the film is restored immediately after passage.

As part of an ongoing project to evaluate elite track and field throwers in the United States, the javelin competition was filmed during the 1983 Pepsi Invitational Track Meet. A high-speed video camera (Spin Physics SP2000) was positioned orthogonal to the javelin runway to record the release of all throws. During this competition, Tom Petranoff’s world record (99.72 m) was filmed at 200 fields per second. Subsequent frame-by-frame digitization yielded results consistent with reports in the literature. Release velocity was 32.3 m/s and represents one of the highest values ever reported. Angle of release was .57r, javelin attitude at release was .64r» and angle of attack was .07r. While optimum values for these release parameters, in light of published results, remain open to discussion, the results presented here represent unique information on a world record performance and can serve as a basis of comparison for future performances.

Liquid sheet break-up in coflowing shear flow is the mean by which liquids are atomized in practical injectors for gas turbine combustors. The present study explores experimentally the mechanisms of liquid sheet instabilities and spray formation. Experiments are conducted on four airblast geometries. A high-speed video camera associated with an image processing unit was used to study the liquid sheet instabilities. A microphone and a frequency analyzer were used to track the disintegration frequency. Instability amplitude and disintegration length of the liquid sheet were measured. A two-component Phase Doppler Particle Analyzer was used to characterize the resultant spray. The spatial distribution of the particle size is influenced by the swirling flow field. These experimental results will be used to assess models of fuel sheet instabilities and disintegration.
