| Abstract | Summary form only given. The fragment-producing chemical-electrical launcher (FP-CEL) project has investigated the use of explosively driven magnetic loading techniques to launch controlled fragments in a predictable manner. A conventional fragmenting warhead uses high-explosive detonation products to throw fragments directly for various applications. This approach has remained unchanged for many decades; however, greater control is desired to enhance kinetic-energy lethality mechanisms, and to lower collateral effects associated with storage and usage. To establish the feasibility of such a system, we have conducted small-scale experiments using a capacitor-driven ramp-wave generator to accelerate flyers and fragments to velocities of 2 to 3 km/s, and have analyzed the data with multi-dimensional magneto-hydrodynamic computer codes. Although an explosive first stage-a flux-compression generator (or FCG)-would have similar electrical output to the capacitor-based approach, such a two-stage system would have a significantly reduced total efficiency. In addition to overall feasibility, the present effort has examined issues of system efficiency, as well as how scale-up to operational capabilities would be accomplished. The work has emphasized the study of the basic physics of the launching phenomena, while considering existing FCG technology as a prime power source. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
