Abstract
In the milieu of military sea mine design, it is often necessary to design mines that are to be placed at small distances from each other. A possible tactical purpose may require that each mine be set to explode at controlled instances in time without disturbing the operation of the other mines in the field or causing sympathetically detonated reactions. Thus two problems (on face value) are prevalent when reliable operation of two mines in close proximity is to be considered. The first problem is sympathetic detonation. The second problem is reliability failure.
