Deformation and Rupture of Thin Steel Plates due to Cumulative Loading from Underwater Shock and Bubble Collapse by Julian J. Lee, Malcolm J. Smith, James Huang, Geoffrey T. Paulgaard

“…Although the main impulsive load on the plate was due to the shock impact, because the standoff distances were less than twice the maximum free-field bubble radius, a strong interaction between the detonation product bubble and the target plate caused a rapid water jet to impinge on the plate, resulting in additional loading and damage. …”

Influences of Infrared Dye Content and Laser Energy Density on Laser Propulsion Performance of ADN-Based Liquid Propellants by Lizhi Wu, Jinle Cao, Jingyuan Zhang, Jingwei Zeng, Yue Pan

“…Compared to the factor of the infrared dye content, the laser energy density contributes more to the ablation efficiency, especially when the increase in laser energy density promotes the full release of chemical energy from the liquid propellant, which, in turn, also enhances the impulse, impulse coupling coefficient, and the plasma detonation velocity. The results provide an important reference for the design of an energy-containing liquid propellant.…”
