Shock compaction and impact response of thermite powder mixtures

This dissertation focuses on developing a predictive method for determining the dynamic densification behavior of thermite powder mixtures consisting of equivolumetric mixtures of Ta + Fe₂O₃ and Ta + Bi₂O₃. Of primary importance to these highly reactive powder mixtures is the ability to characterize...
