Integrated Modeling and Experimental Studies at the Meso Scale for Advanced Reactive Materials

Abstract

The modeling and simulation work in this grant was directed by Prof. D. Scott Stewart, (the Stewart-Group) and the experimental work and data collection was directed by Prof. Nick Glumac (the Glumac-group). Professors Stewart and Glumac and Drs. John Bdzil and Joseph C. Foster, collaborated on experimental designs, that benefited from the concurrent theoretical and computational modeling. The effort described in this report fully integrated modeling and experiments to study the energy release processes that thermitic and/or exothermic intermetallic reactive materials experience when they are subjected to sustained shock loading.
