The birth and growth of explosions initiated by mechanical and thermal means have been studied. Liquid and solid explosives show a striking similarity. The point of initiation is always located at a source of local high temperature, for example, a ho

This paper describes an experimental study of the initiation of solid explosives, and in particular the effect of artificially introducing transient hot spots of known maximum temperature. This was done by adding small foreign particles (or grit) of

The fundamental physical, chemical and mechanical processes which occur when a detonation wave passes through an explosive were imperfectly understood at the beginning of the recent war. As part of the scientific war effort in the British Common-weal

EARLIER work1,2 has shown that the initiation of liquid and solid explosives by impact or friction is due to the formation of localized hot spots. These hot spots may be generated by adiabatic compression of small entrapped bubbles, by friction and s

IT has been shown that when liquid explosives such as nitroglycerine are initiated by impact, the explosion begins as a comparatively slow burning which spreads for a short distance from the point of initiation at a speed of c. 400 metres per second,
