Re: JWL for RDX

I don't have the exact numbers for RDX at hand.  However, C4 contains 91% RDX and should have detonation characteristics similar to that of RDX.  Please see the paper that I've attached to your post for more details.

For a related discussion please see http://imechanica.org/node/1278.

Re: Explosions (bomb units)

"Bomb units" are often used in the simulation of high-rate processes such as explosions.  I've added a PDF containing the conversion factors from bomb units (BU) to SI to the original post.
