The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.7 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00016 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.18 SJR: 0.313 SNIP: 0.6 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 16

ABSTRACT

Several heterogeneous solid rocket propellants, of the broad family AP/metal/HTPB, were experimentally analyzed at the Space Propulsion Laboratory of Politecnico di Milano in cooperation with MACH I Inc. In general, they feature the same nominal composition, but different metals are investigated as fuel powders and contrasted to a conventional micrometric aluminum (30 μm average grain size) taken as reference. Although the metal oxidation process follows a common set of events, aggregation and agglomeration phenomena near the burning surface may be noticeably different depending on the enforced operating conditions and details of the solid propellant formulation. Understanding of these effects opens the path to improved ballistic performance.
