DESCRIPTION:Starting from the concrete problem of the survivability of pro
 pellant material\, we will present the developments in the modelling  of  
 their behaviour  in three domains:\n\n1.	In two domains where quasistatic 
 loading can be applied\, a specific homogenisation procedure will be prese
 nted : \n-	For visco-hyperelasticity  description of the  response of the 
 material\;\n-	For debonding descriptions of the  response of the material\
 n\n2.	The dynamic domain through a mesoscopic description.  \n\nLimitation
 s of and issues with these description will be presented.\n\n\n\n*This wor
 k is done in collaboration with :\n- Le Laboratoire de Mécanique et de Ph
 ysique des Matériaux de l’ENSMA (A. Dragon\, C. Nadot\, D. Halm)\n- Le 
 Centre de Morphologie Mathématiques (CMM) de l’ENSMP (D. Jeulin\, M. Fa
 essel)\n\nAnd support by the DGA.\n
