State (See item a ). For a detailed description of LS equation, see Ref If Ref 10, p 194 Ref 12a, p 246 and Ref 12b, Chapter 14. Briefly the equation is based on the assumption that decomposition products formed on detonation are, because of their high density, not gases, but rather liquids whose particles are in a state of oscillation. This conditions the course of expansion of the decomposition products. L S replaced R of die Abel equation by a coefficient depending on the number of degrees of molecular freedom. We are not describing here the LS equation because the modification by Zel dovich Kompaneets seems to replace it (See next item

According to the summary of the development of back-arc basins in the Cenozoic age by Tamaki and Honza (1991) (Figs. 3.3 and Fig. 3.4) and Kaiho and Saito (1994) (Fig. 3.5), many back-arc basins (Japan Sea, Kuri, Shikoku, Parece Vela, South China, Sulu, Makassar, Central Scotia, Cayman) widely and rapidly developed during 30-15 Ma. 

Suppose the cost for a fixed-head heat exchanger constructed of 316 stainless steel operating at 300-600 psi is to be estimated. The base case is a carbon steel, floating-head exchanger operating at 100 psi of area A. For such operation (Kuri and Corripio 1984), the base cost is...

Kury et al (Ref 7) consider the cylinder test to be the most versatile for determining relative performance. The test was developed by Kury et al in I960 and described in conf paper (Ref 3) which was not used as a source of information. The test was later improved and its modified version was described in unclassified Ref 7...

Detonation (and Explosion), Equations of State ]. Kury et al came to the conclusion that, on introducing an extra term into Wilkins equation, they can obtain a modification which is suitable for a range of pressures 1 to 500kbar and which gives results in fairly good agreement with exptl values. Their equation is described in item Z, under "Detonation, Equations of State in ... 

Relative performance" of various HE s was predicted by Kury et al (Ref 7, p 11) on calcn using Becker-Kistiakowsky-Wilson equation in a thermodynamic-hydrodynamic code, such as RUBY (qv). To do this the energy release (AE) for the reaction ...

At the lower pressures, the test data do not fit the gamma-law curve (Kury et al, Ref 19, p 7), and terms have been added in an attempt to adjust to this situation. The "two-term Wilkins (Wilkins et al in Ref 18, p 776) is a fair approximation (See also Ref 13, p 18a)...
