Transient high speed gas flow in a gravel stemming column. [BANDICOOT Event] (open access)

Transient high speed gas flow in a gravel stemming column. [BANDICOOT Event]

Transient high speed gas flow up a gravel stemming column was investigated. The results provide an upper bound to the extent of gas pressure propagation in the first several seconds following an underground nuclear test. Application of these results to the LASL BANDICOOT event demonstrate that gas flow through the gravel column cannot explain that vent.
