This paper reports experimental results of shock wave interaction phenomena with multi-layered wire gauze for understanding of shock wave pressure attenuation related to shock wave medical and biomedical applications. Five sheets of stainless-steel wire gauze were interacted with micro-explosive-induced spherical shock wave. The process of a spherical shock wave/ multi-layered wire gauze interaction phenomena was visualized by shadowgraph method and recorded by a high-speed camera. The pressure histories of propagated shock wave pressure interacting with multi-layered wire gauze were measured simultaneously by a pressure sensor. The peak pressure ratio of the primary shock wave peak was decreased by interacting with multi-layered wire gauze, and was lower in the case of a fine stainless-steel mesh.
