July 30th was our 60th wedding anniversary! We celebrated with a 21 day Grand European Cruise and tour from 3 to 23rd July...Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, Germany and The Netherlands. Part 3: 07-06-2019 KUTNA HORA, PRAGUE Sedlec Ossuary The Sedlec Ossuary also known as the Church of Bones is one of the most unusual chapels you will see. Saint Barbara is often portrayed with miniature chains and a tower. As one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Barbara continues to be a popular saint in modern times, perhaps best known as the patron saint of armourers, artillerymen, military engineers, miners and others who work with explosives because of her legend's association with lightning, and also of mathematicians. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Barbara The Lobkowicz Palace: The oldest, largest and most intact private collection in the Czech Republic. Encompassing painting collections by Bruegel, Canaletto, Bellotto, Cranach, Rubens, Veronese and others. ]]>

There exist a lot of controversial issues around the subject of Scalar Waves (SW) and the purpose of this white paper is to take an innovative theoretical approach to prove and backup up existence of such phenomena. We basically define this wave as a Scalar Longitudinal Wave (SLW), whose existence derives from the More Complete Electrodynamic (MCE) theory aspect of Maxwell’s classical electrodynamic equations. MCE falls into the Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) aspect of the Maxwell’s equations, in particular out of his four famous classical equations, our interest focuses on the one that is known us as Faraday’s Law of the Maxwell’s Equation set. From a classical physics point of view, typically there are three kinds of waves: 1. Mechanical Waves (i.e. wave on string) 2. Electromagnetic Waves (i.e. E and B fields from Maxwell's Equations to deduce the Wave Equations, where these waves carry energy from one place to another) 3. Quantum Mechanical Waves (i.e. Using Schrödinger’s Equation to study particle movement) More?: https://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319910222 ]]>

Linear Shaped Charge (LSC) failures were experienced during customer incoming inspection acceptance testing six weeks after successful LAT at the manufacturer. The RDX desensitization was attributed to RDX recrystallization sometime after high density loading during assembly and after LAT at the manufacturer. To understand the cause of failure, RDX literature review, and test analysis are discussed. The 1976 GIDEP ALERT identifies the recrystalline solvent to be occluded acetone while the 1988 GIDEP ALERT identifies occluded cyclohexanone was the recrystalline solvent.

Classes of Explosives According to their chemical reaction rate and resulting output characteristics, explosives are classified as low explosives and high explosives. There is no sharp line of demarcation between the two classes, and within each class there may be explosives of considerably different performance, since they are grouped only according to reaction rate. Low explosives, which deflagrate (burn) rather than detonate and propagate at velocities 1,000 meters per second (m/s) and less, include the propellants, pyrotechnics and initiating or primer explosives. Examples are nitrocellulose, double base powder, smokeless powder, black powder, cordite and the metal oxidizer mixtures. Explosives which detonate and propagate at velocities greater than 1000 m/s, are high explosives and include the secondary explosives RDX, HMX, HNS, DIPAM, TETRYL, DATB, TATB, PETN, TNT, most of their compositions, and the primary explosives lead azide and lead styphnate.

Following a deliberate advance across the northern Chechen plains in October through December 1999, the Russian Army closed on the Chechen capital city of Grozny and the foothills of the imposing Caucasus mountains. There, the advance stopped. The Russians began the new century with a renewed assault on Grozny. The Russians continued their deliberate urban advance and, after forty days of fighting, the smoking ruins of Grozny were theirs. Unlike the first battle for Grozny (in late 1994-early 1995) or the recapture of the city by the Chechens (in 1996), the Russians now used quantities of fuel-air weapons, along with iron bombs, surface-to-surface missiles with high-explosive warheads, massed artillery and tank fire.

Fuel-air mixtures are powerful volumetric explosives (FAE) that were developed at the end of World War II. FAE may virtually use any particulate combustible such as cornstarch powder, metal powders, liquid hydrocarbons or boron hydrides and any type of combustible gases. Dispersions or mixtures of these fuels with air thermally ignite at defined stoichiometry, temperature and pressure. Deflagration of such a system may transition to detonation by a number of mechanisms effecting coherent energy release e.g. (SWAGER). However, transition to detonation of a fuel/air mixture requires supercritical size of the cloud appropriate stoichiometry, temperature and pressure of the system. Generally high temperatures and pressures further DDT and lead to reduction of critical size. ]]>

For the detonation products gases, the locus is a composite CJ isentrope (with fixed composition below 1,800 K and equilibrium composition above 1,800 K). For the combustion products, the locus is the 10-bar equilibrium isobar. By CHEETAH code calculations we have proven that both the Detonation Products and the Combustion Products behave as calorically-perfect gases for temperatures below 3,500 K. ]]>

THERMOBARIC explosives (TBE) are hybrid explosive compositions that, compared to conventional high explosives, have enhanced thermal and blast effects. As the name indicates, thermobaric weapons combine thermal (thermo - 8epµ6 , Greek ) and pressure (baric - apo , Greek) effects for the destruction of soft targets. They are highly effective against tunnels, bunkers,]]>
