...) propellants weapons Laser ignition has many advantages compared with conventional ignition systems in large-caliber guns [( 1 2 )]. As developments are made in laser technology, it is practical to use laser ignition in gun systems because of the high effectiveness and low cost. Furthermore...

..., such as CHEETAH , Fried et al. [( 8 )], can provide a starting point for fitting the experimental data. The standard JWL (Eq. 2 ) form is implemented in GRIM with a simple extension to describe P-V states above the CJ point. We have found, over many years of energetics and weapon system research...

...Qiao Luo; Xiaobing Zhang One of the key technologies of stacked projectile weapons is projectile positioning. However, the present projectile positioning structures have their respective advantages and shortcomings. A new structure based on the self-locking principle is put forward in this paper...
