![]() ![]() “Our study shows that high airspeeds remain a considerable hazard and can still result in severe injuries or even fatalities.” “Before our study, the danger to people inside a concrete-reinforced building that withstands the blast wave was unclear,” says study author Dimitris Drikakis. Their mock-up featured rooms, windows, doorways, and corridors to work out air speed following the blast wave - determining the best and worst places to be. 3D illustration of the simulated air blast and generated blast wave 10 seconds following the detonation of a 750 kT nuclear warhead above a typical metropolitan city the radius of the shock bubble at ground level is 4.6 km. Researchers used advanced modeling techniques to study how a nuclear blast wave speeds through a standing structure. Recently, propagandist Vladimir Solovyov urged Russia to launch a nuclear attack on Great Britain. The findings, based on computer simulations, are timely. Ioannis Kokkinakis from the University of Nicosia in a media release. ![]() Even in the front room facing the explosion, one can be safe from the high airspeeds if positioned at the corners of the wall facing the blast,” says lead author Dr. “People should stay away from these locations and immediately take shelter. According to a team from Cyprus, it’s better than cowering in corridors or near windows and doors. WASHINGTON - If nuclear war breaks out, people should immediately take shelter in the corners of concrete buildings to have the best chance of survival. ![]()
