Use of Photography in the Underground Explosion Test Program, 1951–1952

R. M. Blunt

The Underground Explosion Test Program was established to determine the resistance of soils and structures to attack with high explosives. This paper discusses some of the problems in applying high-speed motion picture photography to the surface phenomena accompanying these tests. Some improvements in equipment and methods were suggested, based on observations made in the field.
