Modeling
Examples:
- Initiation and detonation modeling
- Hazards response modeling
- Sub-detonative response modeling
Molecular and Meso-Scale Effects
Examples:
- Chemical structure-detonation performance relationships
- Chemistry at high temperature and pressure
- Micro-structural effects
New / Non-Traditional Materials
Examples:
- Nano/reactive materials
