Lectures on Mathematical Combustion. Lecture 10. Free-Boundary Problems.

Abstract

Throughout these lectures we have ensured that the reaction terms vanish everywhere except in a thin (flame) sheet, whose location has to be found as part of the solution. So far this free boundary has been either a plane, a circular cylinder, a sphere, or a perturbation of one of these; we now consider problems with more complicated free boundaries. (Author)
