| Summary: | <p>This book, as a volume of the Shock Wave Science and Technology Reference Library, is primarily concerned<i> </i>with the fundamental theory of detonation physics in gaseous and condensed phase reactive media. </p><p>The detonation process involves complex chemical reaction and fluid dynamics, accompanied by intricate effects of heat, light, electricity and magnetism - a contemporary research field that has found wide applications in propulsion and power, hazard prevention as well as military engineering.</p><p>The seven extensive chapters contained in this volume are: </p><p>- Chemical Equilibrium Detonation (S. Bastea and LE Fried) </p><p>- Steady One-Dimensional Detonations (A Higgins) </p><p>- Detonation Instability (HD Ng and F Zhang)</p><p>- Dynamic Parameters of Detonation (AA Vasiliev)</p><p>- Multi-Scaled Cellular Detonation (D Desbordes and HN Presles)</p><p>- Condensed Matter Detonation: Theory and Practice (C Tarver)</p><p>- Theory of Detonation Shock Dynamics (JB Bdzil and DS Stewart) </p><p>The chapters are thematically interrelated in a systematic descriptive approach, though, each chapter is self-contained and can be read independently from the others. It offers a timely reference of theoretical detonation physics for graduate students as well as professional scientists and engineers.</p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p> |
