"Predictability of detonation wave phenomena: influence of diffusive processes, hydrodynamic instabilities and relaxation effects on the hydrodynamic description"

爆轰波是自持的超声反应波，其可以在反应气体和凝聚相高能材料（推进剂、炸药、粉尘等）中维持。 在气体爆炸之后发生的大的超压使它们对于推进应用是有用的。 这些应用需要精确控制波浪的起始和波浪稳定性。就安全应用而言，每当意外释放可引爆气体时，最好有能力预测最终的点火和传播极限以及大规模影响，以便制定适当的缓解战略。 不幸的是，爆轰波动力学不能在典型的工程应用中预测。 本研究的目标是开发这样的预测模型。

Detonation waves are self-sustained supersonic reaction waves, which can be sustained in reactive gases and condensed phase energetic materials (propellants, explosives, dusts, etc...). The large overpressures occurring behind gaseous detonations make them useful for propulsion applications. These applications require accurate control of the wave initiation and wave stability. For safety applications, whenever a detonable gas is accidentally released, it is desirable to have the capability for predicting the eventual ignition and propagation limits and the large-scale effects in order to develop the appropriate mitigation strategies. Unfortunately, the detonation wave dynamics cannot be predicted in typical engineering applications. The present research's objective is to develop such a predictive model.
