Abstract:

The effort described herein seeks to explore the near-resonant thermomechanics of energetic and mock energetic particulate composite materials. The effort specifically focuses on: (i) characterizing the macroscale, elastic and plastic responses of these materials under various mechanical excitations at a range of ambient temperatures; and (ii )developing preliminary computational modeling tools which can be used to predict material response during energetic material formulation and munitions design.
