03E01 Processing and Safety of Energetic Materials
OverviewThe session will cover the rheology and processing of energetic materials, using conventional and novel processing technologies. The scope includes the mathematical modeling and simulation of the processing operation, experimental studies, process control, structure versus the processing history relationships, and various factors which govern the safety of the process, including the conditions which give rise to demixing, segregation, and formation of hot spots.
