Evaluation of Seismic-Acoustic Analysis Methods for a Real-Time UXO Monitoring System

This study evaluates potential seismic-acoustic analysis methods for use in a near real-time automated UXO monitoring system for mitigating UXO hazard. The performance test data consists of 62 high-explosive and 27 dummy/inert artillery impacts of various calibers fired at the U.S. Army Aberdeen Test Center. Static calibration shots were detonated to characterize the seismic velocity structure of the firing range.
