Week01 - GMod Experiment 01- Explosion

The following three clips mirror the found explosion machinima called Battlestation Pacific (See also Machinima – EXPLOSION 01). They reflect the effect of explosion on water, air, and ground between various objects and explosive devices.

EXPLOSION ON WATER


The video was tested the effect of explosion on water and objects above water by using grenade. Although, it did not show much vigorous, it appears that there were some shockwaves and fire through the water. These effects resulted in damaging on surrounding objects (boats).



EXPLOSION IN THE AIR


In order to experiment the effect of explosion in the air, many light wood boxes were constructed on a tree, and dynamites were used as explosive devices. The result was quite impressive. The boxes were broken off into small pieces and scattered on the ground. This presents the notion of porosity as the objects changed their forms due to the effect of explosion.



EXPLOSION ON THE GROUND


In the above video, the light wood boxes were simply placed on the ground. In contrast with the experiment of explosion in the air, it appears that the effect of dynamites on the ground caused the objects exploded in a radial direction. The radial explosion will be wider when a number of explosive devices increases. .
