TY  - CHAP
AB  - Blast injuries inflicted by an explosive event are complex and difficult to characterise. There is a range of injury mechanisms which includes the direct insult of the blast overpressure, penetration by fragments and debris, and blunt or crush trauma induced by displacement of the body. These injury mechanisms are a result of loading at rates often beyond those that conventional testing platforms are designed to deliver, thus bespoke and well-controlled experimental devices are essential to recreate in the laboratory environment these injury mechanisms and reproduce the injury outcomes. This chapter summarises a range of physical experimental devices that have been developed for studying various blast injuries. They are classified into separate time-dependent processes of a blast loading: the primary, secondary, and tertiary blast effects.
