What is a Blast Wave?

A blast wave is a high-pressure wave that propagates outward from an explosion that consists of a leading shock front of compressed gases, followed by a blast wind of negative pressure that can suck items back towards the explosion’s center. This wave travels at supersonic speeds and can cause significant damage due to the rapid rise and subsequent drop in pressure.
