Course content
The course is aimed at fundamentals of shock wave generation, properties, effects in gas, liquid or solid environment from both theoretical and practical perspectives (explosion induced acceleration of matter, fragmentation of materials, explosion treatment of materials, explosive working, cumulative effect, loading of structures and response of personnel).

Learning activities and teaching methods
unspecified
Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the theoretical foundations of pressure wave propagation in various environments and their practical use.
Students will have theoretical base for application of pressure wave (shock, detonation) in the industry or army.
