دانلود کتاب Combustion waves and fronts in flows : flames, shocks, detonations, ablation fronts and explosion of stars

Combustion is a fascinating phenomenon coupling complex chemistry to transport mechanisms
and nonlinear fluid dynamics. This book provides an up-to-date and comprehensive
presentation of the nonlinear dynamics of combustion waves and other non-equilibrium
energetic systems. The major advances in this field have resulted from analytical studies of
simplified models performed in close relation with carefully controlled laboratory experiments.
The key to understanding the complex phenomena is a systematic reduction of the
complexity of the basic equations.
Focusing on this fundamental approach, the book is split into three parts. Part I provides
physical insights for physics-oriented readers, Part II presents detailed technical analysis
using perturbation methods for theoreticians and Part III recalls the necessary background
knowledge in physics, chemistry and fluid dynamics. This structure makes the content
accessible to newcomers to the physics of unstable fronts in flows, whilst also offering
advanced material for scientists who wish to improve their knowledge.
