Materials science; Explosives technology & pyrotechnics

Series: IOP ebooks

This text demonstrates how the science of energetic materials technology can and should link various technologies in the physical sciences to provide an integrated approach. It includes physics, chemistry, materials science, theory and modelling, and will help the discipline to adapt to future needs and research. The text provides a coherent and detailed study of what is now possible and indeed necessary for effective solutions for present and future needs in energetic materials and systems. Energetics technology is a fragmented research area and there is a strong need for a book that provides an interdisciplinary view and introduces the topics along with the connections between them. This book meets this need, encourages interdisciplinary research in the field and is an invaluable reference for researchers in the area of energetic materials.
