Jack has over 50 years’ experience developing models to describe non-linear material behavior in computer simulation codes and applying those models to describe experimental results and design new experiments. He has been at LLNL for the past 37 years, after 10 years with Science Applications International Corporation and 8 years at Physics International Corporation.

During the last 25 years he has concentrated on the behavior of energetic materials including explosives and propellants.
