      <image:title>Knowledge Hub - What is an Explosion? | Fundamentals of Industrial Explosions - Explosion Characteristics</image:title>
      <image:caption>An explosion is characterised by a rapid increase in pressure (known as explosion overpressure), with the rate of pressure rise denoted by Kg and Kst (units of bar m/s ) for gases and dusts respectively. The peak pressure the explosion can reach is known as the maximum explosion pressure (Pmax). These two parameters are commonly referred to as explosion indices, and are crucial for the correct design of explosion protection equipment. After the rapid increase in pressure (and temperature) caused by the expanding gases, a vacuum is created which can suck objects back towards the explosion. This is known as a blast wind, and can cause additional damage to structures following the initial overpressure. For example, it can cause glass windows to shatter in the opposite direction of the explosion overpressure, and is something that should be considered if investigating an explosion.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Deflagration: A subsonic flame front travelling relatively slowly through the flammable atmosphere, producing moderate pressure rise. Deflagration to Detonation Transition (DDT): The flame accelerates rapidly due to congestion, creating significantly higher pressures. Detonation: A supersonic combustion wave coupled with a shock front, generating extremely high overpressures and destructive forces.</image:caption>
