Abstract
An equation of state (EOS) for the detonation product of the copper oxide/aluminum (CuO/Al) nanothermite composites is developed based on the Chapman–Jouguet (CJ) theory and the nanothermite detonation experiment. The EOS is implemented into a coupled computational fluid dynamics and computational solid dynamics code through the material point method for the model-based simulations of the detonation response of the CuO/Al nanothermite material placed in a small well. The simulations demonstrate the validity of the formulated EOS to catch the essential feature of the detonation response of the CuO/Al nanothermite. The EOS parameters are determined by comparing simulated and experimentally measured pressure–time histories.
