Description for Toward Detonation Theory
Hardback. The scientific description of processes involved in the powerful release of energy from high explosive materials remains one of the most complex problems confronting modern science. This book provides insights into the physics, chemistry, and mechanics relevant to initiation and sustenance of detonation processes. Series: Shock Wave and High Pressure Phenomena. Num Pages: 156 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHD; PHF; PNRW; TGB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 11. Weight in Grams: 930.
It is known that the Chapman-Jouguet theory of detonation is based on the assumption of an instantaneous and complete transformation of explosives into detonation products in the wave front. Therefore, one should not expect from the theory any interpretations of the detonation limits, such as shock initiation of det onation and kinetic instability and propagation (failure diameter). The Zeldovich-Von Neuman-Doring (ZND) theory of detonation appeared, in fact, as a response to the need for a theory capable of interpreting such limits, and the ZND detonation theory gave qualitative interpretations to the detonation limits. These interpretations were based essentially on the ... Read more
