Abstract

The key techniques for forecasting of the properties of the explosives were presented. We acquired an array of the properties approximately for 200 explosives on the basis of literature information and own experimental data. Techniques of an evaluation of the main characteristics of the explosive transformation were developed. We forecasted properties of a series of compounds not synthesized earlier by computation methods. The experimental and computed data were combined into vast array of information approximately for 1000 explosives. The systematization of experimental data allows conclusions about the attained levels of efficiency and of safety, and also forecasting the properties of the promising explosives.
