The infrared night vision illuminates are a kind of flare that, with radiation in the near infrared range (700-900 nm) cause illuminates the target in the battlefield and night operations. These illuminates have problems such as low infrared radiation, low burning rate, and so on. Many physical and chemical parameters affect the burn rate and radiation intensity. But the most effective paramete...

Abstract: Oxidizer constitute most part of propellant and ammonium perchlorate is most used oxidizer in solid propellant among other oxidizer. Coating is one method to prevent agglomeration of ammonium perchlorate or to create other desirable properties on ammonium perchlorate. Usually type of coating agent and method of coating are selected on base of purpose of coating. Target of coating per...

AbstractObjectives: This study was designed to examine the demographic features, correlates, motives and the status of the people who commit self-burning behavior. Method: In a descriptive study, 318 self-burning  cases admitted within a period of three years to the only burn center in the province of Mazandaran were studied through a demographic questionnaire and a semi- structured interview. ...

Titanium (IV) oxide as a burning rate catalyst is commonly used in some of the solid composite propellants. As the particle size of this component decreases, the final properties of the propellant will be changed. In this research, effects of using submicron titanium oxide, up to 0.5 percent by weight, have been investigated on properties of an HTPB/AP/Al propellant. TiO2 powder has relatively ...
