Blast wave clearing effects on finite-sized targets subjected to explosive loads

A high explosive detonation is characterised by the rapid release of energy as a mass of explosive material is converted into a high pressure, high temperature gas. As this gas expands it displaces the surrounding air, causing a high pressure shock wave to travel through the air away from the explos...
