Very Deep

For Very-Shallow and Shallow bursts, the volume for the “hollow”
base-surge geometry can be expressed

Vs = wz ((m - Ro) - Zeot a| (Ri + Ro)

(17-9a)

For Deep and Very-Deep bursts, the volume for the "solid" base
eurge geometry can be expressed

height of base surge

R,*

outer radius of base surge

R°

inner radius of base surge

@=

interior angle between each face of the surge and the

base, or water surface.
