During the Attack of Pearl Harbor, the USS Arizona was struck with an armor-piercing bomb which penetrated the upper deck and stopped inside the forward magazine. The bomb triggered an explosion which was powerful enough to cut the Arizona in half and is considered a sympathetic detonation as there was an apparent delay between the detonation of the bomb and the contents of the forward magazine.
In addition, destination therapy may in some cases turn out to remedy the condition that excluded transplantation [4] Estimates place the population in the United States that may benefit from destination therapy at 50,000 – 100,000 patients per year. The addressable population outside of the US is thought be similar in size.
David Chapman [3] and Émile Jouguet [4] originally (c. 1900) stated the condition for an infinitesimally thin detonation. A physical interpretation of the condition is usually based on the later modelling (c. 1943) by Yakov Borisovich Zel'dovich, [5] John von Neumann, [6] and Werner Döring [7] (the so-called ZND detonation model).

Strong links, at least in US nuclear weapons, are always implemented as electro-mechanical systems such as motor-driven switches. [2] There are two main requirements: when functional, never to allow an invalid signals to penetrate the energy barrier, and never to fail in a way that can pass a signal though the barrier before the weak links inside the exclusion zone have also failed.
Underground nuclear testing is the test detonation of nuclear weapons that is performed underground. When the device being tested is buried at sufficient depth, the nuclear explosion may be contained, with no release of radioactive materials to the atmosphere.
It takes 60- to 80-mph winds for the company to shut down transmission lines. CEO Steve Powell said it didn't see winds that powerful.
Non-nuclear detonation of a nuclear bomb A USAF B-47 bomber developed a fire shortly after take-off and went down with a sealed-pit Mark 39 Mod 1 nuclear weapon on board from an altitude of 1,500 ft (460 m). The detonation of the high explosive material in the bomb created a crater 6 feet (1.8 m) deep and 35 feet (10.7 m) in diameter.
