- Abstract
- The objective of the research being conducted under this contract, funded by the Advanced Research Projects Agency, is to obtain a better understanding of the mechanisms of combustion, decomposition, and detonation of solids. Current investigations are concerned with the gas-phase reactions associated with the combustion of composite solid propellants and their relationships to the energy transport processes near solid-propellant surfaces.
