Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves Aims and scope

Abstract

The acceleration ability of an emulsion explosive sensitized with Expancel polymer microballoons and having an initial density of 0.193–1.2 g/cm3 was measured using the end acceleration method and the method of acceleration of a cylindrical shell. The results were compared with those obtained for 79/21 AN/TNT and with the results of ANSYS AUTODYN simulation.
