Underwater electrical explosions entail the rapid vaporisation of metal conductors immersed in water through high-voltage, pulsed electrical discharges, leading to a near-instantaneous release of ...
(a) Penetration of the metal jet; (b) propagation of the ballistic wave and shock wave; (c) bubble pulsation. The time t (in milliseconds) is labeled in the bottom right corner, which corresponds to ...
Cavitation dynamics and underwater explosions represent a confluence of complex fluid mechanical processes and energetic events that have captivated researchers for decades. The phenomena involve the ...
A series of “controlled underwater explosions” were made by Royal Navy divers conducting an exercise in the Solent.
