The JWL is a standard equation of state used worldwide to describe the pressure-volume-energy behavior of a detonating explosive. Even so, not many people are very good at working with it. So I list all the various equations that describe how it works, then give one way that the solution can be obtained in an iterative manner. I have collaborated with Sedat Esen for several years. I am indebted to him for supplying almost all of our collection of dynamite data. He now works with ammonium nitrate/fuel oil, which is another area of interest to us
