Disjunction introduction is controversial in paraconsistent logic because in combination with other rules of logic, it leads to explosion ( i. e. everything becomes provable ).

One theory is that this was caused by a design fault in the ammunition loading system to the main gun turrets, so that an enemy hit on the turret set off an explosion in the magazine, thus sinking the ship.

However in the DVD, the Davros Connections, director Gary Russell points out that the explosion of Davros ' life-support chair leaves the listener to believe there is little of Davros left.

They bear little resemblance to modern lifeforms, and their relationship even with the later lifeforms of the Cambrian explosion is difficult to interpret.

An explosive material, also called an explosive, is a reactive substance that contains a great amount of potential energy that can produce an explosion if released suddenly, usually accompanied by the production of light, heat, sound, and pressure.

* Heat — Sensitivity is expressed in terms of the temperature at which flashing or explosion of the material occurs.

This characteristic is of practical importance in determining the effectiveness of an explosion in fragmenting shells, bomb casings, grenades, and the like.

With HC / D 1. 1, it is expected that if one item in a container or pallet inadvertently detonates, the explosion will sympathetically detonate the surrounding items.

HC / D 1. 2 is further divided into three subdivisions, HC / D 1. 2. 1, 1. 2. 2 and 1. 2. 3, to account for the magnitude of the effects of an explosion.

* 1567 – Lord Darnley, second husband of Mary, Queen of Scots, is found strangled following an explosion at the Kirk o ' Field house in Edinburgh, Scotland, a suspected assassination.

A fallout shelter is an enclosed space specially designed to protect occupants from radioactive debris or fallout resulting from a nuclear explosion.

During a nuclear explosion, matter vaporized in the resulting fireball is exposed to neutrons from the explosion, absorbs them, and becomes radioactive.

The brilliant explosion on the left is a gamma-ray burst.

In both this lengthy history and in the relatively recent explosion of visual communication in the 20th and 21st centuries, there is sometimes a blurring distinction and over-lapping of advertising art, graphic design and fine art.

Anti-aliased rendering, combined with Adobe applications ability to zoom in to read small type, further combined with the now open PostScript Type 1 font format, provided the impetus for an explosion in font design, and desktop publishing of newspapers and magazines.

A flare, also sometimes called a fusee, is a type of pyrotechnic that produces a brilliant light or intense heat without an explosion.

Supernova nucleosynthesis is also thought to be responsible for the creation of elements heavier than iron and nickel ( Z > 26-28 ), in the last few seconds of the explosion of a supernova, such as a type II supernova event.

However, this results in the supercharger being filled with compressed fuel / air mixture, with a strong tendency to explode should the engine backfire ; this type of explosion is frequently seen in drag races, which for safety reasons now incorporate pressure releasing blow-off plates on the intake manifold, breakaway bolts holding the supercharger to the manifold, and shrapnel-catching ballistic nylon blankets surrounding the superchargers.

** Blast injury, a type of physical trauma caused by an explosion

Pair production is also the hypothesized mechanism behind the pair instability supernova type of stellar explosion, where pair production suddenly lowers the pressure inside a supergiant star, leading to a partial implosion, and then explosive thermonuclear burning.

A detonation will also cause a shock of type 1, above to propagate into the surrounding air due to the overpressure induced by the explosion.

hypernovae ) is a type of supernova explosion with an energy substantially higher than standard supernovae.

Although any supernova type could potentially produce a type IIn hypernova, given suitable surrounding CSM, the constraints on the size and density of the CSM mean that it will almost always be produced from the star itself immediately prior to the supernova explosion.

Due to the risk of explosion and injuries from fragmented glass pieces, use of this type of bottle is not encouraged anymore in most countries.

This was recorded by the seismic network as an explosion type earthquake with rumbling sounds.

The distribution of radiation in the mushroom cloud varies with yield of the explosion, type of weapon, fusion / fission ratio, burst altitude, terrain type, and weather.

An explosion could result from refrigerant type compressor lubricating oils being compressed together with the air.

While the term BLEVE is most often used to describe the results of a container of flammable liquid rupturing due to fire, a BLEVE can occur even with a non-flammable substance such as water, liquid nitrogen liquid helium or other refrigerants or cryogens, and therefore is not usually considered a type of chemical explosion.

Graphic reconstruction of the pier, boxcars and ships at Port Chicago just prior to explosion, with estimates of type and weight of cargo

Initially, it looked more like a type II supernova ( a supernovae formed by the explosion of a giant star ) with strong hydrogen spectral line emission, but later the hydrogen lines faded and strong helium spectral lines appeared, making the supernova look more like a type Ib.

A blast injury is a complex type of physical trauma resulting from direct or indirect exposure to an explosion.

Instead, the standard render safe procedure for any unexploded SD2 butterfly bomb was to evacuate the area for at least 30 minutes ( in case the bomblet was fitted with a type 67 time delay fuze ), then surround it with a ring of sandbags ( to cushion the explosion ) and destroy it in situ by detonating a small explosive charge beside it.

:" There, about a quarter league is Fajã, called " Big " to its name Great / Grande Fajã which offers bread and woad on elevated land, with a few berths for Caravels, it produces at least 50 moios unit of solid measure of bread and woad, and where, also, there is shellfish and fish of all kinds, and along its cape a beach, half a league in size, where there is always a strong ocean current ; and from there, another half a league, the cliffs are covered with much urzela lichen, and large rocks, that spawn an infinity of seafood and large crabs, and from here, there is an explosion of rocks that fall to the sea, like a guns spray, where we find limpets and cowrie shells ; and in front of this point, which forms a bay, where many type of ships anchor, including Carracks from India.
