Final report on repair procedure of strong ground motion data from underground nuclear tests

摘要

Certain difficulties arise when recording close-in around motion from underground nuclear explosions. From March 1988 through September 1994, EG&G Energy Measurements repaired strong round-motion data (acceleration data) from underground nuclear tests for the Los Alamos National Laboratory using, an automated repair procedure. A log was kept of each repair so that the repair procedure could be duplicated. Developed for the VAX system, the procedure allowed the user to stack up a large number of repairs, plot the repaired data, and obtain hard copies. The plotted data could then be reviewed for a given test to determine the consistency of repair for a given underground test.
