The paper presents investigation of shock initiation effects on highly energetic material LX-04, an HMX based one, by a blunt brass projectile using numerical modelling methods implemented in LS-DYNA software. Multi-Material Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (MM-ALE) formulation has been used to provide the possibility of fulfilment of the elements with multiple materials accordingly to multiple phases of the composition detonated. The work is focused on LS-DYNA’s equation of the state keyword *EOS_IGNITON_AND_GROWTH_IN_HE. Proper comparison with experimental data is presented. The introduction into the subject of highly nonlinear transient dynamic finite element analysis, possibilities, and superiority of this kind of modelling are being discussed. Reasons of sustaining the need of data by numerical solutions rather than experimental handling in military applications are given. Some of typical technical issues, occurring during such a fast-performing phenomenon, and the need of experimental validation of the models are typed together with detonation-state determination’s observation capabilities.
