A double-front structure of detonation wave as the result of phase transitions

Using thermochemical code calculations, we show that the nanographite–nanodiamond phase transition, which may occur in the detonation products of a number of carbon containing explosives, can affect the detonation properties and can cause a specific detonation regime with some unusual peculiarities. Among them, we first note the failure of the Chapman–Jouguet condition and the presence of the sonic plane, where the Mach number is equal to unity, in a detonation product expansion wave at a lower pressure than that at the Chapman–Jouguet point. The peculiarities of this detonation regime are demonstrated by the example of TNT, HNS, and RDX. The computed detonation velocities are in excellent agreement with experiments over a wide range of initial charge densities for all of the investigated explosives. The results of this work allow one to explain, e.g., contradictory experimental data on the detonation pressure and on the length of the reaction zone for TNT. We believe that some other solid–solid, solid–liquid, and liquid–liquid phase transformations in the detonation products may also cause a detonation regime with the same features as shown here for the nanographite–nanodiamond transition. We suggest a computational study that should facilitate proposing detonation experiments strongly arguing in favor of the model presented.

A New Scheme for High‐Intensity Laser‐Driven Electron Acceleration in a Plasma

We propose a new approach to high‐intensity relativistic laser‐driven electron acceleration in a plasma. Here, we demonstrate that a plasma wave generated by a stimulated forward‐scattering of an incident laser pulse can be in the longest acceleration phase with injected relativistic beam electrons. This is why the plasma wave has the maximum amplification coefficient which is determined by the acceleration time and the breakdown (overturn) electric field in which the acceleration of the injected beam electrons occurs. We must note that for the longest acceleration phase the relativity of the injected beam electrons plays a crucial role in our scheme. We estimate qualitatively the acceleration parameters of relativistic electrons in the field of a plasma wave generated at the stimulated forward‐scattering of a high‐intensity laser pulse in a plasma.

地表反照率对短波红外探测大气CO2的影响

在卫星短波红外遥感二氧化碳的过程中, 表征地表特征的地表反照率是影响探测精度的重要参数之一. 针对温室气体二氧化碳高精度探测的需求, 本文研究了地表反照率对正演模拟光谱和反演近地面二氧化碳平均柱浓度XCO₂的影响. 模拟计算结果显示, 地表反照率数值增大时, 观察的光谱强度也相应增大, 并且在O₂-A波段造成的光谱差异比1.6 μm波段高出一个数量级, 即地表反照率在O₂-A波段的影响比较大. 选取了两个不同地表类型的实际观测光谱, 仅改变O₂-A波段和1.6 μm波段地表反照率数值, 得出草地点在O₂-A波段地表反照率达到0.25的误差时, 会给XCO₂的反演结果造成大于1%的相对误差, 而1.6 μm波段的地表反照率变化对XCO₂的反演结果造成的误差可以忽略不计, 说明了地表反照率在反演XCO₂过程中的重要性主要来自对O₂-A波段的影响. 此研究表明了地表反照率在卫星遥感温室气体过程中的重要性, 为提高遥感探测二氧化碳的精度提供了重要的理论依据和指导.

针对爆轰波在炸药-金属界面上折射时由实验获得的金属折射冲击波压力与经典爆轰波极曲线理论预测的压力存在显著差异这一问题, 本文展开了进一步的理论和数值模拟分析研究. 首先通过分析指出经典爆轰波极曲线理论的缺陷, 并对爆轰波极曲线理论进行了改进, 改进爆轰波极曲线理论给出了炸药爆轰波折射类型以及折射冲击作用点处的压力值. 然后发展了一个基于次特征理论来数值求解爆轰反应流动控制方程的二阶中心型Lagrange方法, 并数值模拟了一个典型的炸药爆轰波折射实验. 改进爆轰波极曲线理论和数值模拟分析结果表明, 爆轰波折射类型有三种:反射冲击波的正规折射、带Mach反射的非正规折射、无反射波的正规折射, 并且金属折射冲击波压力值随入射角增大而单调减小.

Quantum chemical studies on the structure and detonation properties of the fused polynitrodiazoles: New high energy density molecules

In this study, we explore the possibility that fused polynitrodiazoles act as high energy density materials. Density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/aug‐cc‐pVDZ level were performed to predict the structure, energy of explosion (≈1.68 kcal g^?1), density (≈1.98 g cm^?3), detonation velocity (≈9.50 km s^?1), and detonation pressure (≈41.50 GPa) of model molecules. The predicted properties have been found to be promising compared with 3,4,5‐trinitro‐1H‐pyrazole, 1,3,5‐trinitro‐1,3,5‐triazinane, and octahydro‐1,3,5,7‐tetranitro‐l,3,5,7‐tetraazocane. The nature of azoles of the molecule presumably determines the geometry, stability, sensitivity, density, and detonation performance. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2011     

On the response of rubbers at high strain rates—II. Shock waves

In this series of papers, we examine the propagation of waves of finite deformation in rubbers through experiments and analysis; in the present paper, Part II, attention is focused on the propagation of one-dimensional tensile shock waves in strips of latex and nitrile rubber. Tensile wave propagation experiments were conducted at high strain rates by holding one end fixed and displacing the other end at a constant velocity. A high-speed video camera was used to monitor the motion and to determine the evolution of strain and particle velocity in rubber strips. Shock waves have been generated under tensile impact in prestretched rubber strips; analysis of the response yields the tensile shock adiabat for rubbers. The propagation of shocks is analyzed by developing an analogy with the theory of detonation; it is shown that the condition for shock propagation can be determined using the Chapman-Jouguet shock condition.

Impacts of TV and radio advertisements on the dynamics of an infectious disease: A modeling study

TV and radio advertisements are widely acknowledged as important interventions in raising issues of public health care and play promising role to control the infection through propagating awareness among the individuals. In this paper, a nonlinear susceptible‐infected‐susceptible (SIS) model is proposed and analyzed to see the impacts of TV and radio advertisements on the spread of influenza epidemic. In the model formulation, it is assumed that the susceptible individuals contract infection through the direct contact with infected individuals. The information regarding the protection against the disease is propagated via TV and radio advertisements, and their growth rates are assumed to be proportional to the fraction of infected individuals. However, the growth rate of TV advertisements decreases with the increase in number of aware individuals. The information broadcasted through TV and radio advertisements induces behavioral changes among the susceptible individuals, and they form an isolated aware class. The epidemiological feasible equilibria, their stability properties, and direction of bifurcation are discussed. The expression for modified basic reproduction number is obtained. The model analysis shows that the dissemination rate of awareness among susceptible individuals due to TV and radio advertisements and baseline number of TV and radio advertisements have potential to reduce the epidemic peak and, thus, control the spread of infection. Further, the analytical findings are well supported through numerical simulation.
