About this document

Non-Shock Ignition Model for PBX-8490 by Wahid Azizi is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document presents a constitutive model for predicting the non-shock ignition and mechanical response of high explosives such as PBX-8490. The model includes viscoelastic response, statistical fracture mechanics, and an ignition hot-spot mechanism. It was developed and demonstrated using numerical simulations to predict the mechanical response and ignition/non-ignition of PBX-8490 based on experiments. The model combines a viscoelastic model with the statistical crack mechanics approach to model crackin
