Current knowledge of the physical effects of underwater explosions on the environment is summarized, with particular attention to the heating of water, the mixing of explosion products with water, and cratering. Theory and data indicate that thermal effects on the environment are negligible because rapid turbulent mixing reduces any temperature excess to a negligible amount within minutes. Virtually no data are available on the mixing of explosion products with water and air. However, information on the bubble and surface phenomena of underwater explosions has been utilized to provide qualitative guidance concerning the distributions immediately after a test. Existing theories of turbulent diffusion can be applied to calculate the subsequent history of the products. Knowledge of the physical effects of bottom explosions on the environment is limited to crater measurements in shallow water and some data on the behavior of explosion bubbles in deep water. Suggested programs to fill gaps in current knowledge are outlined. (Author).

This is the first book on explosion-generated water waves. It presents the theoretical foundations and experimental results of the generation and propagation of impulsively generated waves resulting from underwater explosions. Many of the theories and concepts presented herein are applicable to other types of water waves, in particular, tsunamis and waves generated by the fall of a meteorite. Linear and nonlinear theories, as well as experimental calibrations, are presented for cases of deep and shallow water explosions. Propagation of transient waves on dissipative, nonuniform bathymetries together with laboratory simulations are analyzed and discussed.

The elastic response of a submerged structure to an underwater explosion is analyzed mathematically as a problem in hydroelasticity. First the effective pressure field from the explosion is described in terms of the time variation of the volume of the explosion bubble, and the complex motions of the structure are expressed in terms of the normal modes of free vibration of the structure in water. A differential equation is then derived for the motion; where the generalized force is shown, by a reciprocity principle, to depend separately on the history of the explosion bubble without the target, and the pressure field due to the motion of the target without the explosion. Finally some representative solutions of the differential equation are discussed to show in particular how the amplitude of vibration depends on possible synchronization between the pulsation period of the explosion bubble and the vibration period of the structure.
