Fast Reacting Nano-Composite Energetic Materials: Synthesis and Combustion Characterization

Fast Reacting Nano-Composite Energetic Materials: Synthesis and Combustion Characterization Report Title Energetic composites are mixtures of solid fuel and oxidizer particles that when combined offer higher calorific output than monomolecular explosives. The composites traditionally deliver energy as diffusion limited reactions and thus their power available from reaction is much smaller than ...

Analytical Solution for Pressure-Coupled Combustion Response Functions of Composite Solid Propellants

This paper extends the classical analytical solution for small perturbation analysis of the pressure-coupled response of a homogeneous propellant to any two-component composite propellant. The solution obtained is general and can be used with any particular model for propellant combustion. As an example, the Cohen and Strand ammoniumperchlorate propellantmodel for a single ammoniumperchlorate p...

Buckling Analysis of Spherical Composite Panels Reinforced by Carbon Nanotube

In this study, the buckling behavior of moderately thick Carbon Nano-Tube (CNT)-reinforced spherical composite panels subjected to both uniaxial and biaxial loads is examined. The uniform and various kinds of functionally graded distributions of the CNT are considered. The mechanical properties of the nanocomposite panels are estimated using the modified rule of mixture. Based on the first-orde...
