    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implosion_(mechanical_process)

    Implosion is a key part of the gravitational collapse of large stars, which can lead to the creation of supernovas, neutron stars and black holes. In the most common case, the innermost part of a large star (called the core ) stops burning and without this source of heat , the forces holding electrons and protons apart are no longer strong ...

    Explosive decompression occurs typically in less than 0.1 to 0.5 seconds, a change in cabin pressure faster than the lungs can decompress. [1] [3] Normally, the time required to release air from the lungs without restrictions, such as masks, is 0.2 seconds. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_injury

    There is general agreement that spalling, implosion, inertia, and pressure differentials are the main mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of primary blast injuries. Thus, the majority of prior research focused on the mechanisms of blast injuries within gas-containing organs and organ systems such as the lungs, while primary blast-induced ...
