UNDERWATER EXPLOSIONS BENEATH ICE

Effects of underwater explosions beneath lake ice and Arctic ice have been studied experimentally. Results are applicable to prediction of underwater damage ranges from nuclear bursts beneath ice, and to the design of an explosive ice destructor to provide nuclear submarines with quick access to sur...
