The cover picture shows a shock‐induced reaction in a porous bed of octahydro‐1,3,5,7‐tetranitro‐1,3,5,7‐tetrazocine. LLNL researchers demonstrated compaction, reaction, and gas jetting during the initial stages of shock in the powder bed.
A special issue of the journal Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics was recently released that highlights multiscale modeling and experiments, an area of energetic materials science and technology in which LLNL researchers have played a leading role for some time. The issue features the work of MSD’s Keo Springer, Will Bassett, Sorin Bastea, Svjetlana Stekovic, Christopher Miller, Josh Hammons, Michael Nielsen, Michael Bagge-Hansen, Lisa Lauderbach, Laurence Fried, and Trevor Willey; PHYS’s Daniel Orlikowski; and ENG’s Ralph Hodgin and Matthew Cowan. The special issue was suggested by Randy Simpson (WCI), co-edited by Fried, and features cover art by Springer.
