Simulation and Measurements of Small Arms Blast Wave Overpressure in the Process of Designing a Silencer

Simulation and measurements of muzzle blast overpressure and its physical manifestations are studied in this paper. The use of a silencer can have a great influence on the overpressure intensity. A silencer is regarded as an acoustic transducer and a waveguide. Wave equations for an acoustic dotted...
