Dynamical Issues in Combustion Theory (The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and its Applications)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The world of combustion phenomena is rich in problems intriguing to the mathematical scientists, offering challenges on several fronts: mathematical modeling, devising appropriate asymptotic and computational methods, and developing sound mathematical theories. Papers in this volume describe how all of these challenges have been met for particular examples within a number of common combustion scenarios: reactive shocks, low mach number premixed reactive flow, nonpremixed phenomena, and solid propellants. The types of phenomena they examine are also diverse: properties of interfaces and shocks, including curvature effects, the stability and other properties of steady structures, the long time dynamics of evolving solutions, and spatio-temporal patterns. These issues are foremost in combustion research; the papers collected here provide a good representative sampling of contemporary activity in this field.
