Abstract

The criterion for complete fracture of the casing by detonation of packed high explosive was first presented by G.I.Taylor. Thereafter Taylor criterion has been reviewed and extended by many authors. This paper is intended to present a clear understanding of the fragmentation mechanism, and to study the influence of stress waves on the fracture of the casing using finite difference calculation of elastic-plastic flow. The results show that Taylor criterion is correct to a certain extent.
