2020 - Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Thermodynamics
  • Oxygen

Steven F. Son mainly investigates Combustion, Composite material, Particle, Ignition system and Chemical engineering. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phase, Aluminium and Analytical chemistry in addition to Combustion. His work in the fields of Aluminium, such as Thermite, overlaps with other areas such as Superparamagnetism.

His Composite material research includes themes of Propellant, Burn rate, Oxide and Tungsten, Ammonium paratungstate. His Ignition system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ionic liquid, Nanomaterials, Forensic engineering and Microscale chemistry. His Chemical engineering study combines topics in areas such as Carbon, Metal and Porous medium.

His most cited work include:

  • Metal particle combustion and nanotechnology (500 citations)
  • Two-phase modeling of deflagration-to-detonation transition in granular materials: Reduced equations (330 citations)
  • Combustion velocities and propagation mechanisms of metastable interstitial composites (220 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Combustion, Composite material, Propellant, Ignition system and Analytical chemistry. The concepts of his Combustion study are interwoven with issues in Chemical engineering, Particle size, Aluminium and Thermodynamics. He has included themes like Differential scanning calorimetry and Sensitivity, Explosive material in his Composite material study.

His Explosive material research includes elements of Mechanics and Structural engineering. In his work, Nanotechnology is strongly intertwined with Composite number, which is a subfield of Propellant. His Ignition system research incorporates elements of Light-gas gun, Microstructure and Ball mill.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Combustion (31.50%)
  • Composite material (30.06%)
  • Propellant (23.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Composite material (30.06%)
  • Propellant (23.99%)
  • Composite number (13.29%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Composite material, Propellant, Composite number, Explosive material and Analytical chemistry. Steven F. Son applies his multidisciplinary studies on Composite material and Particle in his research. Steven F. Son interconnects Nanoparticle, Polyvinylidene fluoride, Aluminium and Stoichiometry in the investigation of issues within Propellant.

His work deals with themes such as Characterization, Optics, Chemical engineering and Stiffness, which intersect with Composite number. His work on Detonation and Energetic material as part of general Explosive material study is frequently linked to Scale, bridging the gap between disciplines. Steven F. Son combines subjects such as Combustion, Absorption and Particle size with his study of Analytical chemistry.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Additive manufacturing of ammonium perchlorate composite propellant with high solids loadings (29 citations)
  • Characterization of the Hypergolic Ignition Delay of Ammonia Borane (11 citations)
  • The effect of the particle surface and binder properties on the response of polymer bonded explosives at low impact velocities (5 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Thermodynamics
  • Oxygen

Steven F. Son focuses on Composite material, Analytical chemistry, Explosive material, Composite number and Propellant. In general Composite material, his work in Porosity is often linked to Particle linking many areas of study. The Absorption spectroscopy research Steven F. Son does as part of his general Analytical chemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as X-Ray Phase-Contrast Imaging, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

He works mostly in the field of Explosive material, limiting it down to topics relating to Polymer and, in certain cases, Oxide, Solid mechanics, Cracking and Crystal. His Composite number study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Luminescence, Ultrasonic sensor, Thermography and Phosphor. His Propellant research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mixing and Viscosity.
