실전 배치되어 운용 중인 무기체계는 여러 형태의 사고 위험이 항상 존재한다 이중에서도 특히 항공기나 함정에서 발생하는 사고는 그 피해가 막대하게 커질 수도 있어 항공기나 함정 자체에 위협을 줄 수도 있다. 이러한 사고위험으로부터 인적, 물적 자원을 보호하기 위하여 둔감탄약(Insensitive Munitions)에 대한 인식이 높아지고 있으며, 아울러 이러한 무기 체계를 효과적으로 시험 평가하는 규격들이 검토되기 시작하여 1991년에 "Hazards Assesment Tests for Non-Nuclear Ordnance, DoD-STD-2105"를 기초로 한 MIL-STD-2105B가 채택되었다. 본 논문에서는 MIL-STD-2105B의 해석과 그에 따른 둔감탄약 시험에 포함되는 Bullet Impact Test, Fast Cookoff Test, Slow Cookoff Test, Fragment Impact Test, Sympathetic Detonation Test 등의 시험들의 세부적인 시험방법과 그 결과에 대한 판정 기준을 서술하였다. 또한 유도무기의 추진기관을 모델로 하여 둔감탄약 시험의 기준을 제시하였고 이 시험을 통과하기 위하여 향후 연구, 개발하여야 할 분야를 서술하였다.

Insensitive Munition(IM) reduces the explosive weakness of munitions, at the same time, maintains its performances in the moment of discharge, which improves safety of soldiers and minimizes unexpected accidents and casualties from being shot in case of transportation, storage and military operation. Development of IM has been focused as the global trend, which was required to satisfy the demand of army that is to minimize the loss of non-battle forces and to retain the competitiveness in export abroad. In this study, we categorize all the munitions used by ROK Army, then determine the priority of IM by deploying AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. In conclusion, we suggest the priority of IM which is suitable to the affairs of ROK Army.

Purpose: This study proposes the main sources of uncertainty and uncertainty analysis of a measurement system of insensitive munitions tests. Methods: We established the mathematical model for calculating measurement uncertainty of insensitive munitions tests, conducted experiments for calculating uncertainties of dynamic sensitivity and overshoot value, and estimated the distributions of uncertainty factors. Results: The measurement uncertainty calculation methods are presented, which include experimental data processing methods for calculating uncertainties of dynamic sensitivity and overshoot value. Conclusion: The measurement of explosion pressure in insensitive munitions tests is an important issue to the reporting test results and classifying reaction types. The more efforts to ensure the reliability of the insensitive munitions tests results are required.

Bullet impact tests for two solid rocket motors were performed and its results were compared and analyzed. One was loaded with the existing propellant with decreased weight content of burning rate catalyst and added high density additives to improve mechanical properties and the other was loaded with the existing propellant with decreased weight content of burning rate catalyst to improve its insensitivity as well as to maintain the ballistic performance. The composite cases were used for both motors.

N-Guanylurea dinitramide (GUDN) is an energetic material with low sensitivities and good performance for use as propellants or insensitive munitions explosives. The efficient synthesis and characterization of high energy density material of GUDN is reported. GUDN was characterized spectroscopically as well as elemental analysis. In addition, the heats of formation were calculated with the Gaussian 09 suite of programs. For initial safety testing, the impact sensitivity and the friction sensitivity were tested following BAM procedure.
