Sommario/riassunto

This volume brings together international scientists in the field of solid rocket propulsion. Thirty-nine papers present in-depth coverage on a wide range of topics including: advanced materials and non-traditional formulations; the chemical aspects of organic and inorganic components in relation to decomposition mechanisms, kinetics, combustion and modelling; safety issues, hazards and explosive characteristics; and experimental and computational interior ballistics research, including chemical information and the physics of the complex flow field.
