Explosives engineering is the field ofscience andengineering which is related to examining the behavior and usage ofexplosive materials.^[1]

Some of the topics that explosives engineers' study, research, and work on include:

• Development and characterization of newexplosive materials invarious forms
• Analysis of the physical process ofdetonation
• Explosive generatedshock waves and their effects on materials
• Safety testing of explosives
• Analysis and engineering ofrock blasting formining
• Design and analysis ofshaped charges andreactive armor
• Design, analysis and application of military explosives such asgrenades,mines,shells,aerial bombs, missilewarheads, etc.
• Bomb disposal
• Drilling and blasting
• Demolition

• Institute of Makers of Explosives
• International Society of Explosives Engineers (ISEE)
• Missouri University of Science and Technology^[2]
• New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (New Mexico Tech)

The filmThe Hurt Locker follows an Iraq War Explosive Ordnance Disposal team who are targeted by insurgents and shows their psychological reactions to the stress of combat.
