TRIPLE POINT EFFECT

WHEN A LOW-ALTITUDE AIRBURST EXPLOSION OCCURS, THE INITIAL BLAST WAVE PROPAGATES 360 DEGREES FROM THE CENTER OF THE EXPLOSION. WHEN THAT BLAST WAVE COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE GROUND, IT REFLECTS OFF THE GROUND CREATING A SECONDARY WAVE OBTAINING A HIGHER TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE WHICH HAS A GREATER VELOCITY THAN THE INITIAL BLAST WAVE. ONCE THAT REFLECTED BLAST WAVE CATCHES UP WITH THE INITAL BLAST WAVE, ITS COMBINED PRESSURES FORM A MORE POWERFUL BLAST WAVE. THE HIGHEST POINT AND LEADING EDGE OF WHERE BOTH BLAST WAVES MEET IS CALLED THE TRIPLE POINT AND ANYTHING IN THAT AREA EXPERIENCES A PEAK PRESSURE THAT IS SEVERAL TIMES GREATER THAN THE PEAK PRESSURES OF THE INITIAL BLAST WAVE.
