| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The article discusses the use of blast protection simulation software to analyse blast effects, to improve existing equipment and vehicles and to protect from improvised explosive devices (IEDs). It mentions the blast simulators made by companies involved in counter-IED training which use propane and oxygen to replicate IEDs that produce loud but harmless explosions and assessment of a helmet prototype by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory with defense firm Allen Vanguard for the same. |
