Steam Explosion Experts Group i
From: Michael Corradini Assis*; ant Committee Chairman Mr. C. Allen of NRR and T. Ginsberg, the Comittee Chairman, have requested that I compile a list of meetings and open publications where the Sandia ste?.m explosion work has been reviewed and/or analyzed by other investigators in regard to direct containment failure (i.e. ' alpha-mode' failure).
I have compiled an initial list of documents which are described in Enclosure 1.
This is by no means a complete list of steam explosion phenomena, rather it is meant to be a list of only those documents analyzing and/or utilizing Sandia steam explosion research work in regard to alpha-mode failure.
I request that all committee members review this compilation and the attached documents to check for completeness and to familiarize themselves with past investigations.
If certain pertinent documents have been inadvertently d
omitted from this compilation, it is the duty of the committee member to inform me or Mr. Allen or Ginsberg and to personally distribute the documents to the rest of the committee members.
In this way all members will be furnished with complete and up-to-date information.
