Thermophysical Properties


Description:
The focus of the session (03E04) is on theoretical prediction and measurement of thermophysical properties of energetic materials. The properties of explosives and propellant compounds are important for manufacturing and packaging munitions and for predicting and managing any resulting environmental consequences of their use. We encourage you to submit an abstract for presentation at the session.
