A Phonon Boltzmann Study of Microscale Thermal Transport in -RDX Cook-Off
Francis G. VanGessel, Gaurav Kumar, Daniel C. Elton +1
The microscale thermal transport properties of RDX are believed to be major factors in the initiation process. In this study we present a thorough examination of phonon properti…
