Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.Ammonium dinitramide (ADN) and 3,4‐Diaminofurazan (DAF) form a 1:1 energetic cocrystal. We report its crystal structure and spectroscopic signature and evaluate thermal stability, decomposition behavior, hygroscopicity, and combustion properties. Propellant performance calculations benchmark the material against guanylurea dinitramide (GuDN) and ...

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.This study presents an alternative method to manufacture polymer‐bonded explosives by partially curing an HTPB‐based molding powder prior to compaction. The study shows that the length of partial cure time before compaction directly influenced the geometric fidelity, homogeneity, compressive strength, density, and internal microstructure.

Development of NMP‐001, A Nitromethane‐Based Green Propellant
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper discusses the development of a model monopropellant that is aimed at exploring the applicability of nitromethane‐based propellants as an alternative to hydrazine. This approach addresses the challenges faced by HAN‐, ADN‐based propulsion by being more cost‐effective while providing similar performance figures.

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review
Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...
