Abstract

Abstract A systematic method of representing an explosive, based on its composition, is presented. This method is used to display performance data for existing explosives, and suggests an alternate definition for oxygen balance and determines compositions that might produce high-performance explosives. A new method for predicting the detonation velocity of a proposed explosive is also presented. This is a simple method that also yields insight into which factors are important in predicting performance.
