Abstract

Many of the safety properties of solid energetic materials are related to microstructural features. The mechanisms coupling microstructural features to safety, however, are difficult to directly measure. Grain-scale simulation is a rapidly expanding area which promises to improve our understanding of energetic material safety. In this chapter, we review two approaches to grain-scale simulation. The first is multi-crystal simulations, which emphasize the role of multi-crystal interactions in determining the response of the material. The second is single-crystal simulations, which emphasize a more detailed treatment of the chemical and physical processes underlying energetic material safety.
