This volume on Solid Propellant Rocket Research is the first in a new series, Progress in Astronautics and Rocketry, sponsored by the American Rocket Society. In selecting the papers for the volume, the editor attempted to meet as nearly as possible the present needs of solid rocket research scientists for an up-to-date view of the most promising ideas in certain special areas of research. Most of the book deals with the combustion of solid propellants. The particular topics singled out for attention are: Steady-state burning of composite propellants, combustion of metals, unstable burning in solid propellant rockets, and ignition. In addition, the book includes a section on mechanical properties of solid propellant grains, essentially as a subject in its own right, but partly for its practical connection with internal ballistic design and hence with combustion.
