  2. Explosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosion

    The generation of heat in large quantities accompanies most explosive chemical reactions. The exceptions are called entropic explosives and include organic peroxides such as acetone peroxide. [6] It is the rapid liberation of heat that causes the gaseous products of most explosive reactions to expand and generate high pressures. This rapid ...

  3. Blast injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_injury

    Blast injuries can cause hidden sensory [11] and brain damage, with potential neurological and neurosensory consequences. It is a complex clinical syndrome caused by the combination of all blast effects, i.e., primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary blast mechanisms.

  4. Contact explosive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_explosive

    A contact explosive is a chemical substance that explodes violently when it is exposed to a relatively small amount of energy (e.g. friction, pressure, sound, light). Though different contact explosives have varying amounts of energy sensitivity , they are all much more sensitive relative to other kinds of explosives.

    Explosive decompression Mid-air breakup due to explosion in the cabin (Cause of explosion disputed) Saudia Flight 162: 1980 Lockheed L-1011 TriStar: Accident 2/292 Explosive decompression Tyre blowout Far Eastern Air Transport Flight 103: 1981 Boeing 737-222: Accident 110/110 Explosive decompression Severe corrosion and metal fatigue

  6. Combat stress reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_stress_reaction

    Combat stress reaction is an acute reaction that includes a range of behaviors resulting from the stress of battle that decrease the combatant's fighting efficiency. The most common symptoms are fatigue, slower reaction times, indecision, disconnection from one's surroundings, and the inability to prioritize.

  7. Multiple chemical sensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_chemical_sensitivity

    In Japan, MCS is called chemical hypersensitivity or chemical intolerance (化学物質過敏症; kagaku bushitsu kabinsho), and the 1999 Japanese definition requires one or more of four major symptoms – headaches; malaise and fatigue; muscle pain; joint pain – combined with laboratory findings and/or some minor symptoms, such as mental ...

  8. Effects of nuclear explosions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_nuclear_explosions

    It is these reaction products and not the gamma rays which contain most of the energy of the nuclear reactions in the form of kinetic energy. This kinetic energy of the fission and fusion fragments is converted into internal and then radiation energy by approximately following the process of blackbody radiation emitting in the soft X-ray region ...

  9. Pentaerythritol tetranitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentaerythritol_tetranitrate

    The most common use of PETN is as an explosive with high brisance. It is a secondary explosive , meaning it is more difficult to detonate than primary explosives , so dropping or igniting it will typically not cause an explosion (at standard atmospheric pressure it is difficult to ignite and burns vigorously), but is more sensitive to shock and ...
