Novel topologies of fractional‐order generalized filters are introduced in this paper. These
offer the following benefits:(1) realization of lowpass, highpass, bandpass, allpass, or …

Multi-scale predictive models for the shock sensitivity of energetic materials connect energy
localization (“hotspots”) in the microstructure to macro-scale detonation phenomena …

Low velocity impacts on energetic materials induce plastic deformations and sliding friction
which can lead to ignition. If some ignition criteria have been proposed, the remaining …

Visco-SCRAM and the hot spot models are applied to predict the ignition of HMX-based
polymer bonded explosives (PBXs) under low velocity impact. The model is implemented in …

This paper presents design of electronically reconfigurable fractional-order filter that is able
to be configured to operate as fractional-order low-pass filter (FLPF) or fractional-order high …

In polymer-filled granular composites, damage may develop in mechanical loading prior to
material failure. Damage mechanisms such as microcracking or plastic deformation in the …

We investigate stochastic microcracks of a heterogeneous microstructure as the primary
mechanism determining the non‐shock ignition probability of octahydro‐1, 3, 5, 7‐tetranitro …

A physical model is developed to describe the viscoelastic-plastic deformation, cracking
damage, and ignition behavior of polymer-bonded explosives (PBXs) under mild impact …

The probabilistic ignition thresholds of pressed granular Octahydro-1, 3, 5, 7-tetranitro-1, 3,
5, 7-tetrazocine explosives with average grain sizes between 70 μm and 220 μm are …

A physically–based damage–hotspot formation framework incorporating multiple stress–
state motivated evolution–modes of microcracks and microvoids is developed to study the …
