Multi-MHz Color Imaging for In-situ Characterization of Combustions and Detonations in Energetics

Abstract

Funds of $231,700.00 are requested for the acquisition of a high-speed color camera for in-situ characterization of energetic material reactions and detonations. The high-speed color camera that is capable of imaging 1.75 million frames per second is critically needed to provide an in-situ characterization of interfacial structure, damage evolution, temperature-field evolution, solid-solid phase transitions, and product composition of advanced energetics, explosives, composites, and granular materials. The high-speed color camera will also enable us to develop an understanding of hot-spot formation for energetic materials undergoing periodic and dynamic loading and an understanding of coupled piezoelectric and nanoenergetic materials with tailorable and switchable reactivity.
