3. Determining explosion actions
3.1 Assessing the effects of an explosion
An explosion is characterized by an applied overpressure as a function of time. The parameters relevant to the structural calculation have been determined beforehand by one of the methods proposed in .
For each critical element, it is necessary to characterize the waveform and the main parameters:
peak overpressure ;
wave duration ;
impulse.
