X-ray interactions include shock generation and propagation. The conservation equations of fluid dynamics are used to describe shocks. These same equations are applied to blasts in air and underwater shock.
Thermal transmission is examined.
The heat transfer equation is used to study thermal interaction. Buildup factors and fits of transport calculations are employed to study neutron and gamma transmission. Various neutron and gamma interaction phenomena are studied. In the case of each effect, system response is examined, hardening techniques are surveyed, and design trade-offs are discussed.
