Multi-objective Bayesian Optimization With Mixed-categorical Design Variables for Expensive-to-evaluate Aeronautical Applications [PDF]

open access: yesAEROBEST 2023. Vol. 1. No. 1. 2023
This work aims at developing new methodologies to optimize computational costly complex systems (e.g., aeronautical engineering systems). The proposed surrogate-based method (often called Bayesian optimization) uses adaptive sampling to promote a trade-off between exploration and exploitation. Our in-house implementation, called SEGOMOE, handles a high

Influence of AP Particle Size on Burning Characteristics of HMX/AP Propellants Supplemented with Fe2O3

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitramine propellants have attracted considerable attention in the domain of solid rockets and gun propulsion because of their energetic and smokeless features. Ammonium perchlorate (AP) is the widely used oxidizer in propellants owing to the excellent burning characteristics.

Multilinear Analysis of Influential Parameters on the Combustion Velocity of Ternary Pyrotechnic Compositions

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combustion velocity is an important parameter for the formulation of pyrotechnic compositions. It is affected by several parameters that are studied in this work. Pyrotechnic compositions studied are ternary compositions composed of an oxidiser, a metallic reducer and a binder. This binder is also an energetic molecule.

A Comparison Between Allied Ordnance Procedure‐48 and Various Machine Learning Models

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
The graphcial abstract shows the influence of data set size, algorithm and composition information on the prediction of stabilizer consumption. ABSTRACT This study examines the stabilizer depletion data of seven distinct gun propellants (single base and double base, stabilized with DPA or Arkadite II) using the allied ordnance procedure (AOP)‐48 ...
