Surface treatments of nickel and nickel alloys by diffusion coating, electroplating, explosive hardening, peening, and other methods
Numerical integration of Fokker-Planck equation used to predict decay time of electrons injected into geomagnetic field by nuclear explosion
Gas clouds in dense star clusters compared with quasar properties, analyzing possible energy sources like supernova explosions, stellar collisions and star gas interaction
Generation of pressure wave by explosion of condensed phase fuel particles dispersed in gaseous oxidizer
Transient anisotropic cosmic ray increase during recovery phase of Forbush decrease due to reflection from receding blast wave and co-rotating shock wave formed during explosive heating of solar corona
Manipulator operator uses an improved resolution tv camera/monitor positioning system to view the remote handling and processing of reactive, flammable, explosive, or contaminated materials. The pan and tilt motions of the camera and monitor are slaved to follow the corresponding motions of the operators head.

Prototype explosive assembly for large scale plane wave shock experiments on rock specimen in laboratory
The Resonant Combustion Program uses a bombing technique to precipitate the transition from the steady state to the resonant, or oscillatory, rocket combustion mode. The initial pressure disturbance produced by the high-explosive device, when exploded in a nonreactive environment of cold N2 gas, is a blast-wave having an initial amplitude of several thousand psi (within a radius of approximately one inch from the bomb case) which is still several hundred psi strong even at a radius of 4 to 5 in. The use of such a severe triggering disturbance has brought up the question of whether or not the violent sustained oscillatory mode observed in this program is forced by the character of the initial disturbance itself.
