SHOCK INITIATION PERFORMANCE OF NTO-BASED POLYMER BONDED EXPLOSIVE

Shock initiation performance of NTO-based polymer bonded explosive

3-nitro-1,2,4-tri-azol-5-one (NTO) is a high energy insensitive explosive.To study the shock initiation process of NTO-based polymer bonded explosive JEOL-1 (32%octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX), 32% NTO, 28% Al and 8% binder system), the cylinder test, the gap experiments and numerical simulation were carried out.Firstly, we g

Complete Controllability Conditions for Linear Singularly Perturbed Time-Invariant Systems with Multiple Delays via Chang-Type Transformation

The problem of complete controllability of a linear time-invariant singularly-perturbed system with multiple commensurate non-small delays in the slow New Arrivals state variables is considered.An approach to the time-scale separation of the original singularly-perturbed system by means of Chang-type non-degenerate transformation, generalized for t

Fractals: An Eclectic Survey, Part-I

Fractals are geometric shapes and patterns that may repeat their geometry at smaller or larger scales.It is well established that fractals can describe Espresso Cup shapes and surfaces that cannot be represented by the classical Euclidean geometry.An eclectic survey of fractals is presented in two parts encompassing applications of fractals in a va

Optical lenses and magnification in archery*

The use of optical lenses to increase or magnify a target of concern is New Arrivals commonly used in compound bow archery.The principles and factors that may influence the use of these lenses may, however, not be fully understood by archers.Two types of lens systems, the one-lens system and the two-lens system, as described by the authors, may be
