Course content
The basics of the specific properties of energetic materials and the process of their explosive transformation is discussed in detail. Furthermore, some theoretical approaches to derive the relationships between the structure of the explosive and its parameters are presented.

Learning activities and teaching methods
Work with text (with textbook, with book), Methods of individual activities
Learning outcomes
The aim of this course is to introduce students to the nature of explosive transformations - detonation, deflagration, combustion to detonation and thermal explosion.
The student will gain a detailed insight into specific areas of explosion theory relevant to his/her doctoral studies.
