Description
Crater size - blast energy - explosion location relationships are known from a wide range of experiments. But not much is known if several blasts form a craters. This code (and the model cited below) aims to fix this gap.
The code is based on the supplementary material of a JGR article on the scaling behavior of mulitblast craters.
