Submitted by bdmmech on

Hi !!! all

I really struglling to get the JWL and Lee Traver EOS parameters for RDX .

If anybody can help seriously I will be highly obliged. Atlest the EOS parameters of Comp-A5 or PBX 9604 having higher percentage of RDX (98.5 % and 96% respectively)  will  be sufficient.

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to let everyone know about the upcoming NAFEMS North American 2008 Regional Summit: NAFEMS 2020 Vision of Engineering Analysis and Simulation. This is an excellent opportunity for academic researchers, industrial practitioners and software developers to meet for mutual benefit.

For those of who you not familiar with NAFEMS, it is a non-profit, vendor neutral, engineering analyis community.

After some conversation with Roozbeh which are "irritatingly useful" :) I found that this site has done already all the calculations we need http://www.scimagojr.com/  except the list of highlycited papers which remains for me the most interesting aspect and which we seem to need to do manually as we did yesterday with IJSS and JMPS at Most cited papers and H-factor of some mechanics journals -- IJSS

Some results are attached as a big PDF file.
