A discussion of explosive pulsed power systems and their applications, this book consists of 7 chapters. The first five describe the basic physics of these sources and their ancillary equipment, based on a manual for training engineers in Russia. Chapter 6 is a description of codes and methodologies used at Loughborough University in the UK to build flux compressors, while Chapter 7 covers two specific applications: high power lasers and high power microwave sources. The book introduces all types of explosive power sources and their ancillary equipment, the procedures required to build them, and specific applications.
While the basic operating principles of Helical Magnetic Flux Compression Generators are easy to understand, the details of their construction and performance limits have been described only in government reports, many of them classified. Conferences in the field of flux compression are also dominated by contributions from government (US and foreign) laboratories. And the government-sponsored research has usually been concerned with very large generators with explosive charges that require elaborate facilities and safety arrangements. This book emphasizes research into small generators (less than 500 grams of high explosives) and explains in detail the physical fundamentals, construction details, and parameter-variation effects related to them.
Over 500 pages of facts, statistics, and records of every match and every player for the New Zealand national Rugby Union team from the first match in May 1884 up to December 2023.
The Indexes are a reference source for legal practioners and academics seeking to locate a specific 20th-century precedent, or trying to discover whether there is a relevant precedent in a particular area of law. Cases are listed alphabetically by plaintiff and defendant, as well as alphabetically by subject. The court which decided each case is also identified, and cases are followed by brief pointers which indicate in greater detail the precise nature of the decisions made. This work covers sentencing.
