A multi-physics methodology for four-states of matter
Louisa Michael, Stephen T. Millmore, Nikolaos Nikiforakis
We propose a numerical methodology for the simultaneous numerical simulation of four states of matter; gas, liquid, elastoplastic solids and plasma. The distinct, interacting physi…
Meso-resolved simulations of shock-to-detonation transition in nitromethane with air-filled cavities
XiaoCheng Mi, Louisa Michael, Eleftherios Ioannou +3
Two-dimensional, meso-resolved numerical simulations are performed to investigate the complete shock-to-detonation transition (SDT) process in a mixture of liquid nitromethane (NM)…
Detonation propagation in annular arcs of condensed phase explosives
Eleftherios Ioannou, Stefan Schoch, Nikolaos Nikiforakis +1
We present a numerical study of detonation propagation in unconfined explosive charges shaped as an annular arc (rib). Steady detonation in a straight charge propagates at constant…
A complete equation of state for non-ideal condensed phase explosives
Simon David Wilkinson, Martin Braithwaite, Nikolaos Nikiforakis +1
The objective of this work is to improve the robustness and accuracy of numerical simulations of both ideal and non-ideal explosives by introducing temperature dependence in mechan…
