We contrast the problems of detonation and shock diffraction over convex and concave corners. Detonations are distinguished from shock waves by the presence of an intrinsic length scale associated with a reaction zone. The extent of this reaction zone depends on both the nature of the chemical system and the detonation wave speed. The dependence of the reaction front thickness on wave speed causes the diffraction of detonations to be essentially different from shock waves. Shock waves diffract in a self-similar manner around both concave and convex corners, but detonations do not. The departure of detonations from self-similarity is manifested most dramatically in diffracting around convex corners. Under certain conditions, a detonation can fail by degenerating into a weak shock followed by a low-speed flame. Diffraction around concave corners also departs from self-similarity but the behavior is bounded by the limits of frozen and equilibrium flow.
