DESTRUCTION OF MATERIALS BY SHOCK WAVE CUTTING CHARGES UNDER WATER IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS

Abstract

The paper assesses the effectiveness of shock-wave technology cutting for rocks. A comparison of materials cutting technologies using a shock-wave and a shaped charge is done. Shows a significant reduction in the consumption of explosives and an increase in efficiency in shock-wave cutting with a simultaneous reduction in safe distances. Solving the problems of underwater explosions in the interests of rescue operations in emergency situations.
