Kinetic Compensation of Barrel Launch Under High‐Speed Solid‐Phase Particulate Impacts

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An accurate launch‐dynamics computational method is critical for barrel weapon service life assessment and multiphase physics field refinement. Given the lack of studies on the solid‐phase buildup behavior at the projectile base, this paper provides an improved method for calculating the launching dynamics under high pressure and high speed ...

Mechanical and Ballistic Properties of Epoxy Composites Reinforced with Babassu Fibers (Attalea speciosa)

open access: yesPolymers
The mechanical and ballistic performance of epoxy matrix composites reinforced with 10, 20, and 30 vol.% of babassu fibers was investigated for the first time. The tests included tension, impact, and ballistic testing with 0.22 caliber ammunition.

Influence of Hornification Treatment and Fiber Length on the Performance of Recycled Polypropylene Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Study of the influence of hornification treatment and jute and mallow fiber length on the physical, thermal, and mechanical properties of recycled polypropylene (PP) composites. ABSTRACT The growing accumulation of plastic waste has driven its reuse in the development of new composites, with natural fibers emerging as promising reinforcements. However,

The Effect of Alumina Nanoparticles Impregnated Kevlar on Ballistic Resistance of Aluminum Alloy 7075 Hybrid Laminate Composite for Armor Application

open access: yesInternational Journal of Technology
Military equipment development, especially means of transportation, currently revolves around material selection, which includes hybrid laminate composite as a prominent material choice due to its strength-to-weight ratio.

Influence of electron scatterings on thermoelectric effect

open access: yes, 2012
In this work, we employed non-equilibrium Green's function to investigate the electron transport properties in the nanowire with the presence of scatterings. The scattering mechanism is modelled by using the concept of B\"uttiker probe.

Comparative Assessment of Energetic Plasticizers Including NFPEG3N3 in a GAP/HMX Formulation: Mechanics, Stability, Combustion, and Performance

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the new energetic plasticizer 3‐(2‐(2‐(2‐azidoethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)‐4‐nitro‐1,2,5‐oxadiazole (NFPEG3N3), three reference compounds (BDNPA/F, Bu‐NENA, and DNDA‐57), and a plasticizer‐free control in a fixed HMX/GAP composite. NFPEG3N3 provides the strongest low‐temperature properties, yielding the lowest formulation glass transition ...

Development of impact resistant boron/aluminum composites for turbojet engine fan blades [PDF]

open access: yes
Composite fabrication was performed by vacuum press diffusion bonding by both the foil-filament array and preconsolidated monotape methods. The effect of matrix material, fiber diameter, matrix enhancement, fiber volume reinforcement, test temperature ...

Analysis of Possible Quantum Metastable States in Ballistic Graphene-based Josephson Junctions

open access: yes, 2010
Graphene is a relatively new material (2004) made of atomic layers of carbon arranged in a honeycomb lattice. Josephson junction devices are made from graphene by depositing two parallel superconducting leads on a graphene flake.

Tuning the Morphology of Self‐Assembled Nanopatterns on MgO(001) Surfaces by Sequential Broad‐Beam Ion Irradiation

open access: yesphysica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.
A two‐step approach based on broad‐beam ion irradiation is demonstrated to produce fine‐tuned self‐assembled surface patterns on MgO(001). It shows an efficient route to modifying the crystalline MgO(001) surface topography in a controlled way, making use of its very specific behavior in terms of both the pattern morphology and patterning dynamics.

High performance ammonium nitrate propellant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
A high performance propellant having greatly reduced hydrogen chloride emission is presented. It is comprised of: (1) a minor amount of hydrocarbon binder (10-15%), (2) at least 85% solids including ammonium nitrate as the primary oxidizer (about 40% to ...
