Abstract:
Objective:To develop an economical,simple and portable device for imitation of ship shock motion produced by non-contacting under water explosion.Methods:The device was developed based on aerodynamical principles and sensor detection technology,and was tested with animal experiments to verify its performance.The injuries caused by 4 grades of shock motions with different accelerations,duration and displacement were observed in 40 black rabbits(10 for each grade).Results:The device was safe and functionally stable,with a peak acceleration of 1 000 m/s~2,a shock duration of about 2 ms and a device displacement of 100 mm.The accelerations of 4 shock motion grades were significantly different and with good reproducibility.The damage to the rabbits were mainly haemorrhage of different extents in organs of pleuroperitoneal cavity,especially in the lungs,but no rupture of organs was found.The degree and involvement of damage had an increasing tendency with the increase of acceleration of shock motion.Conclusion:The device we developed can imitate the effects of ship shock motion.
