The pursuit of heat-resistant energetic materials (HREMs) with thermal stability beyond 450 °C presents a significant challenge that has yet to be achieved. In this work, we develop an innovative electronic delocalization strategy to design and synthesize a planar dizwitterionic diamino-bistriazolotetrazine, designated as TYX-1. The unique structural feature of TYX-1, including a nitrogen-rich fused ring system, planar conformation, and dizwitterionic configuration, combined with its hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) structure, confer exceptional thermal stability (The onset temperature is 428 °C, and the peak temperature is 473 °C), high density (1.84 g/cm3), and remarkable detonation performance (detonation velocity: 8616 m/s). Furthermore, TYX-1 exhibits an impressive insensitivity (impact sensitivity > 40 J; friction sensitivity > 360 N), surpassing all previously reported HREMs. Theoretical calculations and single-crystal clearly indicate that the delocalized π electrons within the dizwitterionic bistriazolotetrazine rings and the HOF structure of TYX-1 are pivotal in ensuring its high thermal stability and high energy density. The discovery of TYX-1 marks a significant advancement in the field of HREMs and is anticipated to catalyze substantial progress in various high-temperature applications reliant on energetic materials.
追求热稳定性超过450°C的耐热高能材料(HREMs)是一个尚未实现的重大挑战。在这项工作中,我们开发了一种创新的电子离域策略来设计和合成平面双两性离子二氨基双三氮唑四嗪,命名为TYX-1。TYX-1独特的结构特点,包括富氮熔环体系、平面构象和双阴离子构型,再加上氢键有机骨架(HOF)结构,使其具有优异的热稳定性(起爆温度为428℃,峰值温度为473℃)、高密度(1.84 g/cm3)和卓越的爆轰性能(爆轰速度为8616 m/s)。此外,TYX-1表现出令人印象深刻的不灵敏度(冲击灵敏度>; 40 J;摩擦灵敏度>; 360 N),超过了之前报道的所有hrem。理论计算和单晶分析清楚地表明,双三氮唑四嗪双阴离子环内的离域π电子和HOF结构是保证TYX-1高热稳定性和高能量密度的关键。TYX-1的发现标志着HREMs领域的重大进步,并有望催化依赖于含能材料的各种高温应用的实质性进展。

The remarkable mechanical and physical characteristics of functionally graded (FG) graphene origami (GOri)-enabled auxetic metamaterial (GOEAM) structures, including their high strength-to-weight ratio, tunable stiffness and strength, and negative Poisson's ratio (NPR), have demonstrated significant promise for a range of engineering applications. This paper aims to investigate the nonlinear free vibrations behaviors of FG-GOEAM non-uniform thickness skew-microplate with rectangular and elliptical planform and resting on Kerr-elastic foundation in thermal environment. Within the framework of the higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT), von Kármán assumption, modified couple stress theory (MCST) and by employing Hamilton's principle the nonlinear governing equations of motion are established. By combining an iterative technique with a displacement control strategy, an isogeometric analysis (IGA) approach used to determine the nonlinearity in free vibration, as measured by the nonlinear frequency ratio associated with the center deflection amplitude. The effects of GOri distribution patterns, weight fraction, length-scale parameter, temperature difference, skew-angle, and micro-plate dimensions on the nonlinear free vibrations behaviors of the FG-GOEAM non-uniform thickness skew-microplate are revealed through a thorough parametric study. This result can be applied in studies on the design of micro-electro-mechanical devices operating in various complex environments and conditions.

Effects of end caps of cylindrical casing on fragment velocity distribution 圆柱形机匣端盖对破片速度分布的影响
IF 5.9 Q1 ENGINEERING, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-09-27 DOI: 10.1016/j.dt.2025.09.033

Fragment velocity distribution is an important parameter affecting the terminal effects of warheads. The rarefaction wave, end cap, and its confinement state can significantly affect the fragmentation of the cylindrical charge casing. Most of the existing studies have performed experiments and simulations considering the rarefaction wave and unfixed end caps; research on fixed end caps and sufficient theoretical explanations are limited. In this work, the effects of rarefaction waves, end caps, and their fixed states, on the fragment velocity distribution, were studied via experimentation and simulation, and reasonable theoretical explanations were provided. The results show that the rarefaction wave and end caps affect the fragment velocity by changing the pressure states of the detonation products. At the initiation end, the fragment velocities of casings with unfixed initiation ends are 33.3% (300 m/s) greater than that of casings without end caps, because of the weakening of the attenuation effect of the rarefaction wave. The fragment velocities of the casings with fixed initiation ends are 8.3% (100 m/s) greater than that of casings with unfixed initiation ends. At the non-initiation end, the fragment velocities are 24.8% (297 m/s) greater than that of a casing without end caps, and the reflecting shock wave generated by the fixed non-initiation end increases the fragment velocity by 7.3% (113 m/s), compared to the theoretical velocity. This work provides a basis for the structural design and analysis of the terminal effects of warheads.
破片速度分布是影响弹头末效的重要参数。稀薄波、端帽及其约束状态对圆柱形装药机匣破片有显著影响。现有的研究大多是在考虑稀疏波和不固定端盖的情况下进行实验和模拟;对固定端盖的研究和充分的理论解释是有限的。本文通过实验和模拟研究了稀薄波、端帽及其固定状态对破片速度分布的影响,并给出了合理的理论解释。结果表明,稀薄波和端帽通过改变爆轰产物的压力状态来影响破片速度。在起爆端,未固定起爆端筒的破片速度比未固定起爆端筒的破片速度大33.3% (300 m/s),这是由于稀散波的衰减作用减弱所致。起爆端固定的破片速度比起爆端不固定的破片速度大8.3% (100 m/s)。在非起爆端破片速度比无端帽机匣高24.8% (297 m/s),固定非起爆端产生的反射激波使破片速度比理论速度提高了7.3% (113 m/s)。这项工作为战斗部末端效应的结构设计和分析提供了依据。

IF 5.9 Q1 ENGINEERING, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-09-12 DOI: 10.1016/j.dt.2025.09.017

Gravity-caisson wharves have been widely constructed in coastal and island regions, which are threaten by potential underwater explosions. This work aims to study the dynamic behaviors and propose a damage evaluation approach of caisson wharf against underwater explosion. Firstly, based on both the underwater explosion loading test and underwater explosion test on the reduced-scale caisson specimen, a high-fidelity finite element analysis approach for numerically reproduce the dynamic behaviors of prototype caisson wharves against underwater explosions was proposed and verified. Secondly, the underwater explosion loadings and dynamic behaviors of prototype caisson wharf (14.9 m×8.1 m×10.95 m) against sequential blast wave and bubble pulsation of typical torpedo with a charge weight of 200 kg were studied. The influences of the seabed and cabin infill materials, as well as the explosion standoff distances of 3.4–10.2 m and depths of burst between 1/4 and 3/4 of water depth, on the blast resistance of caisson wharf were further examined through deflection distributions of exterior wall, damage evolution, and overall displacement of caisson wharf. Finally, a performance evaluation approach for prototype caisson wharves against underwater explosions was proposed by comprehensively considering the bearing, storage, and berthing capabilities. The corresponding protective measures and design recommendations were further provided. It indicates that: (i) under the explosion of a typical torpedo, the damage modes of prototype caisson wharf mainly involve the overall vibration, spalling and cracking of the exterior wall, collapse of the upper operating platform and cracking of the top plate; (ii) the blast wave and cavitation zone generated between the bubble and the exterior wall are the two primary causes of damage to caisson wharf; (iii) compared to the saturated calcareous sand seabed, the assumption of rigid seabed underestimates the spalling on the exterior wall, which is not recommended for scenarios where cavitation zones may generate; (iv) rock rubble is the most effective infill material in improving the blast resistance of caisson wharf among four types of infill configurations, i.e., fully filled and half-filled saturated calcareous sand, rock rubble and pure water; (v) the standoff distance of 10.2 m is regarded as a secure protective range in the scenarios discussed currently. As the standoff distance decreases and the depth of burst increases, the spalling of the exterior wall induced by the cavitation intensifies, posing a great threat to the functionality of caisson wharf.
重力沉箱码头广泛建设在沿海和海岛地区,这些地区存在潜在的水下爆炸威胁。本文旨在研究沉箱码头在水下爆炸作用下的动力特性,并提出一种损伤评估方法。首先,基于水下爆炸加载试验和缩小尺寸的沉箱试样水下爆炸试验,提出了一种高保真的数值再现原型沉箱码头水下爆炸动力特性的有限元分析方法,并进行了验证。其次,研究了原型沉箱码头(14.9 m×8.1 m×10.95 m)在典型装药200 kg鱼雷连续冲击波和气泡脉动作用下的水下爆炸载荷和动力特性。通过沉箱码头外墙挠度分布、损伤演化和整体位移,进一步考察了海底和舱室填方材料、爆炸距离3.4 ~ 10.2 m、爆炸深度1/4 ~ 3/4水深范围对沉箱码头抗震性的影响。最后,提出了综合考虑承载能力、储运能力和靠泊能力的原型沉箱码头抗水下爆炸性能评价方法。并提出了相应的防护措施和设计建议。结果表明:(1)在典型鱼雷爆炸作用下,原型沉箱码头的破坏形式主要为整体振动、外墙剥落开裂、上部作业平台倒塌、顶板开裂;(ii)爆破波和气泡与外墙之间产生的空化区是沉箱码头破坏的两个主要原因;(iii)与饱和钙质砂质海床相比,刚性海床的假设低估了外墙的剥落,不建议在可能产生空化区的情况下采用这种假设;(iv)在全填和半填饱和钙质砂、石料和纯水4种填筑形式中,石料是提高沉箱码头抗爆破能力最有效的填筑材料;(v)在目前讨论的方案中,10.2米的距离被视为安全防护范围。随着间隔距离的减小和爆破深度的增加,由空化引起的外墙剥落加剧,对沉箱码头的功能构成极大的威胁。

Hotspot evolution and shock-induced reaction mechanism in aluminum explosives 铝炸药中热点演化及冲击诱发反应机理
IF 5.9 Q1 ENGINEERING, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-10-15 DOI: 10.1016/j.dt.2025.10.004

Aluminum nanoparticles, owing to their high energy density and excellent reactivity, are widely used to enhance the energy release efficiency of explosives. In this study, reactive molecular dynamics simulations were employed to systematically investigate the hotspot evolution and reaction kinetics of aluminum nanoparticles under shock loading. The results show that hotspots predominantly form and evolve along the oxide layer interface, exhibiting a typical "hot shell-cold core" structure. A thicker oxide layer significantly delays the heating and reaction initiation of the aluminum core, with reversible crystal structure transformations observed inside the core. Larger particles facilitate heat accumulation and promote sustained reactions. As the oxide layer thickness increases, the reaction mechanism of aluminum nanoparticles transitions from melting-diffusion and micro-explosion oxidation to an oxidation-diffusion dominated process. A dense nitrogen-containing reaction layer forms on the surface, which suppresses the later-stage reaction. A nonlinear reaction kinetics model based on bond statistics reveals that particles with a thin oxide layer exhibit rapid reaction saturation and are insensitive to shock velocity. Particles with intermediate oxide thickness exhibit a reaction behavior that gradually slows down over time, while those with a thick oxide layer can exhibit accelerated reactions under high-velocity shocks due to enhanced diffusion. Small particles show significantly increased reaction rates at high velocities, whereas large particles tend to slow down due to the thickening of the surface reaction layer. The oxide layer thickness, particle size, and shock velocity exhibit complex competitive and synergistic effects that jointly regulate the initiation, rate, and evolution of aluminum nanoparticle reactions.
纳米铝由于其高能量密度和优异的反应性,被广泛用于提高炸药的能量释放效率。本研究采用反应分子动力学模拟方法,系统研究了冲击载荷下铝纳米颗粒的热点演化和反应动力学。结果表明,热点主要沿着氧化层界面形成和演化,呈现出典型的“热壳-冷核”结构。较厚的氧化层显著延缓了铝芯的加热和反应的开始,在铝芯内部观察到可逆的晶体结构转变。较大的颗粒有利于热积累,促进持续的反应。随着氧化层厚度的增加,铝纳米颗粒的反应机制由熔融-扩散和微爆炸氧化过渡到氧化-扩散为主的过程。表面形成致密的含氮反应层,抑制了后期反应。基于键统计的非线性反应动力学模型表明,具有薄氧化层的颗粒具有快速的反应饱和,并且对激波速度不敏感。具有中等氧化层厚度的颗粒表现出随时间逐渐减慢的反应行为,而具有较厚氧化层的颗粒由于扩散增强而在高速冲击下表现出加速反应。小颗粒在高速下反应速率显著增加,而大颗粒由于表面反应层的增厚而趋于减慢。氧化层厚度、颗粒大小和激波速度表现出复杂的竞争和协同效应,共同调节铝纳米颗粒反应的发生、速率和演化。

Simplified semi-analytical solutions for dynamic responses of composite cylinders subjected to far-field underwater explosions 复合材料圆柱体在远场水下爆炸作用下动力响应的简化半解析解
IF 5.9 Q1 ENGINEERING, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-09-26 DOI: 10.1016/j.dt.2025.09.032

This paper presents a simplified design tool based on semi-analytical formulations to investigate the dynamic response of an immersed composite cylinder subjected to a far-field underwater explosion. The cylinder is simply supported, fully submerged and filled with air inside. A classical shell theory using a Double Fourier series solution combined with the first-order Doubly Asymptotic Approximation (DAA1) formulation is adapted to model the fluid-structure interaction. An explicit non-standard finite difference scheme is applied to solve the coupled differential equations in time domain. The validity of DAA1 model is established by comparing the LS-DYNA/USA finite element results with existing experimental data from the literature. Then the proposed semi-analytical solutions are compared to the LS-DYNA/USA results, showing good correlation with a discrepancy of 7% for peak deflections and ±9% for maximum stresses at the stand-off point for cylinders with relatively small length over radius ratios. Parametric studies examining the effect of different loading conditions, areal masses, and material configurations reveal that a large charge mass located far from the composite panel turns out to be more damaging than a small mass located nearby due to a broader pressure-time profile. Finally, the proposed model demonstrates a significant reduction in computation time, being approximately 30 times faster than its numerical counterpart, LS-DYNA/USA, making it a valuable tool for the preliminary design stages.
本文提出了一种基于半解析公式的简化设计工具,用于研究复合材料浸没筒体在远场水下爆炸作用下的动力响应。圆柱体是简单支撑的,完全浸没在水中,里面充满空气。采用经典壳理论,采用双傅立叶级数解结合一阶双渐近近似(DAA1)公式来模拟流固耦合。采用显式非标准有限差分格式在时域上求解耦合微分方程。通过LS-DYNA/USA有限元结果与已有文献实验数据的对比,验证了DAA1模型的有效性。然后,将所提出的半解析解与LS-DYNA/USA结果进行比较,结果表明,对于长度/半径比相对较小的圆柱体,峰值挠度的差异为7%,最大应力的差异为±9%,相关性良好。参数研究考察了不同加载条件、面质量和材料配置的影响,结果表明,由于压力-时间分布范围更广,远离复合材料板的大电荷质量比靠近复合材料板的小电荷质量更具破坏性。最后,所提出的模型显示了计算时间的显着减少,比其数值对应的LS-DYNA/USA快约30倍,使其成为初步设计阶段的宝贵工具。

IF 5.9 Q1 ENGINEERING, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-10-25 DOI: 10.1016/j.dt.2025.10.019

Investigating the detonation reaction zone structures of high explosives is significant for understanding detonation reaction mechanism. This study employed an integrated approach combining machine learning prediction, theoretical calculation, and experimental characterization to determine the detonation reaction zone width of CL-20-based aluminized explosive. In this study, the detonation reaction zone refers to the reaction zone between the von Neumann (VN) peak and sonic point, which usually means the so-called detonation driving zone (DDZ). For the machine learning prediction, an ensemble model integrating Random Forest and Support Vector Regression was developed to predict the reaction zone width using a dataset of 19 publicly available samples. For the theoretical calculation, the Wood-Kirkwood (W-K) detonation theory model was utilized to implement numerical calculation of the reaction zone structures, incorporating chemical reaction kinetics to describe the detonation reaction progress. In experimental characterization, the Photon Doppler Velocimetry (PDV) was applied with LiF as the optical window to measure the particle velocity profile of detonation products and derive the reaction zone width. The results indicate that the reaction zone width values are 0.25 mm, 0.28 mm, and 0.26 mm obtained from machine learning prediction, theoretical calculation, and experimental characterization, respectively. The corresponding velocities at the Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) point are 1,938 m/s, 2,047 m/s, and 1,982 m/s, respectively. The maximum relative deviation in reaction zone width among three methods is approximately 7.7%, while that for CJ particle velocity is approximately 3.3%. These results from all three methods agree well within engineering error. This validates the effectiveness of integrating machine learning prediction, theoretical calculation and advanced experimental techniques for studying the detonation reaction zone structures of high explosives. This research provides insights into the detonation reaction mechanism and reaction zone characteristics of CL-20-based aluminized explosive.
研究烈性炸药的爆轰反应带结构对理解爆轰反应机理具有重要意义。本研究采用机器学习预测、理论计算和实验表征相结合的方法,确定了cl -20基铝化炸药的爆轰反应带宽度。在本研究中,爆轰反应区是指冯·诺伊曼(VN)峰与声波点之间的反应区,通常也就是所谓的爆轰驱动区(DDZ)。对于机器学习预测,开发了一个集成随机森林和支持向量回归的集成模型,使用19个公开可用样本的数据集预测反应区宽度。理论计算采用Wood-Kirkwood (W-K)爆轰理论模型对反应区结构进行数值计算,结合化学反应动力学描述爆轰反应过程。在实验表征中,利用光子多普勒测速仪(PDV)以LiF作为光学窗口,测量爆轰产物的粒子速度分布,并推导出反应区宽度。结果表明,通过机器学习预测、理论计算和实验表征得到的反应区宽度值分别为0.25 mm、0.28 mm和0.26 mm。Chapman-Jouguet (CJ)点对应的速度分别为1938 m/s、2047 m/s和1982 m/s。三种方法对反应区宽度的最大相对偏差约为7.7%,对CJ粒子速度的最大相对偏差约为3.3%。这三种方法的结果在工程误差范围内很好地吻合。这验证了将机器学习预测、理论计算和先进实验技术相结合研究高爆药爆轰反应区结构的有效性。本研究揭示了cl -20基铝化炸药的爆轰反应机理和反应区特征。

Elucidating the thermal decomposition mechanism of advanced energetic composites based on nitrated cellulose carbamate/ diethylene glycol dinitrate supplemented with organic stabilizers 研究了硝化氨基甲酸纤维素/硝酸二甘醇复合材料的热分解机理

This study evaluates the stabilizing effect of lignin, extracted from Eucalyptus globulus, on an energetic composite of nitrated cellulose carbamate (NCC) plasticized with diethylene glycol dinitrate (DEGDN), compared to conventional stabilizers 2-nitrodiphenylamine (2-NDPA) and 1,3-dimethyl-1,3-diphenylurea (C-II). FTIR analysis confirms lignin's capacity to scavenge nitroxyl radicals formed during thermolysis of nitrocarbamate and nitrate ester bonds, thereby inhibiting decomposition. Moreover, the incorporation of C-II, 2-NDPA, and lignin significantly raised the peak temperature of the main thermolysis, as confirmed by DSC and TGA, indicating a progressive stability enhancement in the order: NCC/DEGDN < NCC/DEGDN/C-II < NCC/DEGDN/lignin < NCC/DEGDN/2-NDPA. Additionally, the effect of each stabilizer on the decomposition pathway was characterized by TGA-FTIR. The findings show that stabilizer type significantly affects the intensity of gaseous products released during decomposition without altering their nature. Notably, NH2 groups formed during NCC degradation play a key role in nitrogen conversion, particularly by reducing toxic NO emissions.
本研究评价了从蓝桉中提取的木质素对硝酸二甘醇(DEGDN)塑化硝化氨基甲酸纤维素(NCC)的稳定作用,并与传统的稳定剂2-硝基二苯胺(2-NDPA)和1,3-二甲基-1,3-二苯基脲(C-II)进行了比较。FTIR分析证实木质素能够清除硝基氨基甲酸酯和硝酸酯键热分解过程中形成的硝基自由基,从而抑制分解。DSC和TGA证实,C-II、2-NDPA和木质素的掺入显著提高了主热解峰温度,表明稳定性依次增强:NCC/DEGDN <、NCC/DEGDN/C-II <、NCC/DEGDN/lignin <、NCC/DEGDN/2-NDPA。此外,利用热重-红外光谱(TGA-FTIR)表征了各稳定剂对分解途径的影响。结果表明,稳定剂类型对分解过程中气态产物释放的强度有显著影响,但不改变其性质。值得注意的是,NCC降解过程中形成的NH2基团在氮转化中起着关键作用,特别是通过减少有毒的NO排放。

Bio-inspired offset array design for enhanced range in underwater active electrosensing with neural network-based localization 基于神经网络定位的水下有源电传感距离增强仿生偏移阵列设计
IF 5.9 Q1 ENGINEERING, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2026-03-01 Epub Date: 2025-10-27 DOI: 10.1016/j.dt.2025.10.021

Addressing the critical detection range limitation in active electrosensing (AES) for underwater sensing, this study proposes an enhanced AES system via novel array optimization. While AES offers advantages like interference immunity, acoustic stealth detection, and low cost, its short range restricts applicability. A target perturbation model under differential signal acquisition reveals that signal strength increases with local electric field intensity, target size, differential channel spacing, and conductivity contrast, but decreases with target-electrode distance.
To extend detection, novel array configurations were explored. Simulations demonstrate that both rectangular and offset arrays significantly outperform the traditional collinear layout. Specifically, an offset array (with 8 m transmitting–receiving spacing) achieved an effective detection range enhancement exceeding 83% under the same distortion threshold while maintaining simplified electrode structure. Experimental validation confirmed a 100% increase in maximum detection distance to 5 m under identical noise thresholds compared to the collinear array. Furthermore, a fully connected neural network-based localization model achieved a mean positioning error of 14.12 cm at 3.15 m in static scenarios. In dynamic scenarios within 1–3 m, mean errors were controlled between 13.19 cm and 27.56 cm.
Mechanistic analysis indicates that increasing the array baseline enhances the signal-to-noise ratio by simultaneously suppressing near-field environmental noise and amplifying far-field signal reception. Structural innovations in array design enabled this study to significantly expand the detection range of AES systems without compromising cost efficiency. These advancements directly promote the engineering application of AES technology, offering critical technical support for underwater defense security monitoring, long-range early warning systems, and maritime rights protection.
针对水下有源电感测(AES)关键探测距离的限制,提出了一种基于阵列优化的有源电感测系统。虽然AES具有抗干扰、声隐身探测和低成本等优点,但其短距离限制了其适用性。差分信号采集下的目标摄动模型表明,信号强度随局部电场强度、目标尺寸、差分通道间距和电导率对比度的增大而增大,但随目标电极距离的增大而减小。为了扩展检测,探索了新的阵列配置。仿真结果表明,矩形阵列和偏置阵列都明显优于传统的共线阵列。具体而言,在保持简化电极结构的同时,偏置阵列(发射-接收间距为8 m)在相同失真阈值下实现了超过83%的有效检测距离增强。实验验证证实,与共线阵列相比,在相同噪声阈值下,最大检测距离增加100%至5米。此外,基于全连接神经网络的静态定位模型在3.15 m处的平均定位误差为14.12 cm。在1 ~ 3 m的动态场景中,平均误差控制在13.19 ~ 27.56 cm之间。机理分析表明,增大阵列基线可以同时抑制近场环境噪声和放大远场信号接收,从而提高信噪比。阵列设计的结构创新使本研究能够在不影响成本效率的情况下显着扩展AES系统的检测范围。这些进步直接促进了AES技术的工程应用,为水下防御安全监测、远程预警系统和海洋权益保护提供关键技术支持。
