Asymptotic Methods Especially in Combustion.

Abstract

Modern asymptotic methods have been applied to a wide range of problems in combustion science as well as certain magnetohydrodynamic and fluid mechanical questions. Details are contained in the 49 technical reports and 4 Ph.D. theses listed. Topics covered under this contract included: Asymptotic methods, combustion, DDT(Deflagration to Detonation Transition) near-stoichiometry, premixed and diffusion flames, droplet burning, stretch resistance, strain effects, effect of pressure variations, dissociation, non-dilute mixtures, wrinkled flames, burner flames, stability, quenching, heat loss, ignition and extinction, Chapman-Jouget limit, polyhedral flames, surface equilibrium, monopropellant, reactive atmosphere, stagnation-point flow, galloping detonations, flame bubbles, solidification fronts, Hartmann layers, intumescent paints, and flickering.
