The overall objective of the research program has been to study the non-steady burning characteristics of solid rocket propellants, both experimentally and theo

Despite significant developments and widespread theoretical and practical interest in the area of Solid-Propellant Nonsteady Combustion for the last fifty years

A theoretical analysis is presented of unsteady solid propellant combustion, particularly combustion stability and extinction by rapid depressurization. It is a

A prominent mode of coupling that may drive a solid propellant rocket motor into instability is the interaction between the oscillatory gas dynamic pressure at
