An Overview of Explosions and Impact of Explosives MaterialsBy S. Gawande
Abstract: An explosive is a material, either a pure single substance or a mixture of substances, which is capable of producing an explosion by its own energy. It is not proper to define an explosive as a substance, or a mixture of substances, which is capable of undergoing a sudden transformation with the production of heat and gas. The production of heat alone by the inherent energy of the substance which …

A Mini Review on Applications and Uses of AlloysBy S. Gawande
Abstract: Alloys are mixed of metal with other metal or non-metal in the same group that are prepared by mixing of the metals in their molten state through physical processes. An alloy is a mixture of two elements, one of which is a metal. Alloys often have properties that are different to the metals they contain. This makes them more useful than the pure metals alone. For example, alloys are often …
