On May 23, 2024, commissioning shots were performed on the newly fabricated advanced blast simulator (ABS) at the CARES Lab, which is directed by Dr. Sarah A.

The ABS is oxyacetylene-driven, located in a newly renovated biosafety level 2 laboratory, and will support blast-induced injury (or damage) research. The length of the ABS is 43-ft (13.11 m). A 42-in. x 36-in. (1.07 m x 0.92 m) door is located on both sides of the ABS for sample insertion in the test section. The test section has a 4-ft x 4-ft (1.22 m x 1.22 m) cross-section.<\/p>\n

Collaborators interested in blast exposure experiments, using biological and\/or nonbiological samples<\/strong> placed inside the ABS, should email Dr. Bentil (sbentil@iastate.edu<\/a>).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
