Numerical Evaluation of Applicability and Accuracy of Gurney Equations for Use in Fixed Size Setups

The study presents an evaluation of applicability and accuracy of Gurney equations when used in several different setups of inertial layers accelerated by exploding charges. Both solid and fragmented inertial layers were considered. The evaluation was carried out based on numerical analysis, during which it was observed that the fragmentations bears no effect on the velocity value sand neither do dimensions of symmetrical layers. However, the layer thickness has a significant effect on these values.
