ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- You can learn a lot from a blast tube. You can learn more when you couple blast experiments with computer modeling. Sandia National Laboratories researchers are using a blast tube ...

Ever wonder how a manufacturer builds a shock to elicit a great ride and handling characteristics when it's installed into a specific car? We assume lots of road testing is the key. RideTech showed us ...

RideTech's shock test was one for the history books. I had the opportunity to test their new coilovers and airbag components, and learn a few things from the air-ride man himself, Bret Voelkel. Bret ...

Research teams have established a theoretical method for designing smooth curved wall surfaces with variable cross-section shock tubes, and developed an integrated, high-intensity multifunctional ...

In theory, shock tubes provide a pressure change with a very fast rise time and calculable amplitude. This pressure step could provide the basis for the calibration of pressure transducers used in ...
