Streszczenie
The explosion investigation should be carried out in a methodical way by a two-step-procedure:
– correlating the individual traces with the typical traces of all known explosion types, generally by an eliminating process,
– investigation of the explosion cause belonging to the explosion type found out before, also generally by elimination.
This procedure can be applied in the majority of cases and it can help to avoid misinterpretations and possibly misjudgements. The method is limited by the lack or the accident related loss of expressive traces or by the ambiguity of traces.
