Моделирование случайных разрывов цепи с оценкой молярных функций распределения массы). Scientific paper. Document in pdf-format. 2012. – 29 p. An example is presented of the ageing of a gun propellants (GP) followed by molar mass decrease of the nitrocellulose (NC). Paper presented on the 5th Inteational Nitrocellulose Symposium, April 17-18, 2012, in Spiez, Switzerland. Сontents:
