The authors would first recommend that readers review the previous three review papers
from 2013, 2016 and 2019 [22–24]. Those may have some articles on technology that …

This review summarizes (i) compositions and types of improvised explosive devices;(ii) the
process of collection, extraction and analysis of explosive evidence encountered in …

Nitrate ester plasticized polyether (NEPE) is a kind of high-energy solid propellant that has
both good mechanical properties and high specific impulse. However, its unique …

A reliable kinetic description of the thermal stability of energetic materials (EM) is very
important for safety and storage-related problems. Among other pertinent issues …

We present a new integrated experimental and modeling effort that assesses the intrinsic
sensitivity of energetic materials based on their reaction rates. The High Explosive Initiation …

Understanding the dynamic combustion behavior of a solid propellant with reaction
mechanisms is essential for designing rocket engines and safely disposing of expired …

The combustion, detonation, and explosion chemistry of energetic materials is regulated by
the formation and decay of critical intermediates that are generated during the process. In …

Meso-scale modeling of heterogeneous energetic materials requires accurate description of
the chemical reaction model that governs the decomposition of solid energetic crystals to …

TKX-50 and HMX, as two highly promising energetic materials, are widely used in rocket
propellants. TKX-50/HMX cocrystal can also improve the defects of TKX-50 and HMX and …

Molecular simulations of high energetic materials (HEMs) are limited by efficiency and
accuracy. Recently, neural network potential (NNP) models have achieved molecular …
