A model to account for the effects of friction during explosive pinch

Safety is of paramount importance in the handling, processing and storage of explosives. Mechanical insults resulting from low-speed impact, that crush and pinch an explosive, have been identified as a possible ignition source. However, modelling such an ignition mechanism numerically with hydrocode...
