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

This paper details the development of experiments to measure the burning rate of polymer-bonded explosives (PBX) as a function of pressure. To aid in the development of a burn to violent reaction (BVR) modelling capability, a key need is for data on the burn rate of the energetic material over the pressure range 0−1000 MPa. These data can be used to validate any model developed and also to aid in the development of BVR models. Therefore the closed-vessel test was used to provide data on the burn rate of three PBX compositions. The three PBX compositions contained 70−80% 1,3,5-trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX). One PBX composition contained fine RDX only, another contained coarse RDX only, and the third contained a mixture of fine and coarse RDX. Burn rates up to 600 MPa have been successfully measured and agree favorably with those reported in the open literature.
