Head Pressure Pressure exerted by a stationary column of water, directly proportional
to the height of the column
Detonation Instantaneous and explosive release of stored chemical energy of a
hazardous material.
Violent rupture Immediate release of chemical or mechanical energy caused by
runaway cracks. They occur within a time frame of one second or less
