Evaluating the effect of insensitive high explosive residues on soil using an environmental quality index (EQI) approach

Persico, Federica; Coulon, Frederic; Ladyman, Melissa; Fernandez Lopez, Carmen; Temple, Tracey (Elsevier, 2023-02-03)

The environmental impact of Insensitive High Explosive (IHE) detonation residues to soil quality was assessed using a series of outdoor soil mesocosms. Two different soils were used including a pristine sandy soil and a ...
Introducing Bayesian belief updating as a method to counter improvised explosive devices: a qualitative case study on identifying human behaviours associated with explosive chemical precursor diversion

Collett, Gareth; Ladyman, Melissa; Temple, Tracey; Hazael, Rachael; McNaught, Ken R. (Springer, 2023-08-21)

Countering improvised explosive devices (C-IED) is a significant theme of the twenty-first century, particularly in regions with limited governance and a fragile rule of law. Many strands of activity are involved, with ...
Investigating residue dissolution of insensitive high explosives in two sandy soil types: a predictive modelling approach

Gutierrez-Carazo, Encina; Dowle, James; Coulon, Frederic; Temple, Tracey; Ladyman, Melissa (Elsevier, 2023-09-15)

The demand for munitions that are less likely to detonate accidentally has led to an increased use of Insensitive High Explosives (IHE), which contain substances like 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN) and 5-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-3-one ...
Persistence of 2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-trinitrobenzene in the environment

Christian, Olivia; Spencer, Michael; Ladyman, Melissa; Persico, Federica; Gutierrez-Carazo, Encina; Kadansky, Evie; Temple, Tracey (Elsevier, 2023-10-13)

2,4,6-triamino-1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (TATB) is an Insensitive High Explosive (IHE) that is increasingly being used as a safer alternative to traditional energetic materials. However, the high thermal stability of TATB poses ...
Predicting the transport of 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN) and 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (NTO) in sandy and sandy loam soils

Gutierrez-Carazo, Encina; Dowle, James; Coulon, Frederic; Temple, Tracey; Ladyman, Melissa (Elsevier, 2022-11-21)

There is a trend toward the use of Insensitive High Explosives (IHE) in both military and civil applications as they are intended to be less prone to accidental detonation compared to traditional explosive fills. This has ...
