Detonation involves a supersonic exothermic front accelerating through a medium that eventually drives a shock front propagating directly in front of it. Detonations are observed in both conventional solid and liquid explosives, as well as in reactive gases. The velocity of detonations in solid and liquid explosives is much higher than that in gaseous ones, which allows the wave system to be observed with greater detail (higher resolution).
Gaseous detonations normally occur in confined systems but are occasionally observed in large vapor clouds. They are often associated with a gaseous mixture of fuel and oxidant of a composition, somewhat below conventional flammability limits. There is an extraordinary variety of fuels that may be present as gases, as droplet fogs and as dust suspensions. Other materials, such as acetylene, ozone and hydrogen peroxide are detonable in the absence of oxygen, fuller lists are given by both Stull and Bretherick. Oxidants include halogens, ozone, hydrogen peroxide and oxides of nitrogen.
Bore me out with your new drill
I'm feeling hollow now
Capable of anything
I'm not rational
Build me up when I?m down here
Show me how you care
Get the message once again
And fall away, fall away
Yeah here I go again
I'm going off the deep end
When you find me lying here
And I'm clinging to the fuse
Don't try to stop me cuz
There?s nothing you can do
Feels so good when I'm sober
Nothing phases me
Until the darker side of me
Comes alive, comes alive
Yeah here I go again
I'm going off the deep end
When you find me lying here
And I'm clinging to the fuse
Don't try and stop me cuz
There's nothing you can do
Except watch me detonate
Then you'll see inside of me
All those things that I
Never want to be
And the message is
Just don't wait for me
Cuz I can't change
Yeah here I go again
I'm going off the deep end
When you find me lying here
And I'm clinging to the fuse
Don't try and stop me cuz
There's nothing you can do
Except watch me detonate
Then you'll see inside of me
All those things that I
Never want to be
And the message is
Just don't wait for me
You made the place a minefield
One more move and you'll set us off
Set the stakes a little higher
We're the fuel we're the fire
We're all ready to detonate
You given us no choice
But to work with what we got
Supplied the tools and every reason
