Revised Guidelines for Blasting Floating Ice.

Empirical prediction curves for ice blasting are given, and their derivation and use is explained. Alternative forms of the curves, which relate more closely to conventional underwater explosion technology, are developed and examined. Results of experiments with gas blasting devices are summarized a...
