A numerical investigation of aspects of the dynamics of metalized explosives: energy partitioning and particle entrainment

Metal particles are commonly added to commercial explosives in order to increase the energy density and the performance of the explosive. The addition of metal particles introduces additional physical phenomena during the expansion phase of the detonation products. The present thesis addresses two s...
