Abstract

Blast waves formed by aerial explosion above dust and coal mine explosion lift dust. The lofted dust particles couple to the flow field and are carried by it. The dust lofting phenomenon behind blast/shock waves is studied over seven decades. Yet, a clear identification of the dominated dust lofting mechanism behind blast and shock waves is still lacking.
