Area of Science:

  • Military medicine
  • Biomedical engineering
  • Occupational safety

Background:

  • Blast overpressure from weapon systems poses significant auditory and nonauditory health risks, necessitating thorough hazard assessment.
  • Current methods rely on the blast test device (BTD) for thoracic blast loading data collection.
  • The anthropomorphic blast test device (ABTD) is an advancement designed for comprehensive auditory and nonauditory data acquisition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To validate the anthropomorphic blast test device (ABTD) against the existing blast test device (BTD).
  • To ensure the continued applicability of existing lung injury models when using the ABTD.
  • To confirm the ABTD's suitability for occupational blast injury risk assessment.

Main Methods:

  • Open field validation blast tests were performed comparing the BTD and ABTD at identical locations.
  • Seven distinct blast strength levels were utilized, covering the spectrum of occupational testing overpressures.
  • Data on lung injury dose was collected from both devices across various blast levels and orientations.

Main Results:

  • The anthropomorphic blast test device (ABTD) and the blast test device (BTD) yielded highly comparable lung injury dose values.
  • Validation testing confirmed the ABTD's successful performance in open field conditions.
  • The ABTD demonstrated its capability to replicate personnel positioning for accurate injury risk assessment.

Conclusions:

  • The anthropomorphic blast test device (ABTD) is validated for use in open field blast testing.
  • The ABTD can effectively replace the BTD for occupational blast injury assessments, offering enhanced data collection capabilities.
  • The successful validation ensures the integrity of lung injury models when utilizing the ABTD.
