Exploration of Structural Health Monitoring of Hot Spot Initiation in CNT-Nanocomposite Bonded Explosive Materials

Abstract

Explore the application of piezoresistive nanocomposite binders for real time embedded sensing of strain and damage in energetic materials through a binder distributed carbon nanotube sensing network in an effort to correlate microstructural features with damage and hot spots.
