The aforementioned different types of stimuli are helpful (and have practical implications) in quantifying the sensitivity of an energetic material. The impact stimulus, the focus of this work, is frequently quantified by the ℎ .# value corresponding to the height ℎ in cm from where a standard weight dropped over a certain amount of explosive will start an explosion 50% of the drops. Therefore, insensitive materials have large ℎ .# and vice-versa.
