  4. 4. Simulations of Safety Aspects for Occpuants in Mine Blast Events

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Pontus Nordström; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Underbody mine blasts are events during which massive amounts of energy is transferred to a vehicle and its occupants during a very short time. The occupants are usually protected by both external (armor) and internal (seat suspension/belts etc.) features. READ MORE
