Summary:
Authored by some of the most prestigious international researchers,
this book contains 21 papers that address five general categories of
combustion science: flame theory, heterogeneous combustion, unsteady
and cellular combustion, turbulent combustion, and explosions and
detonations. The book is dedicated to Yakov B. Zel'dovich, an eminent
researcher known for his theoretical works on combustion and
detonation, who served as the first Chairman of the Scientific
Council of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR. The first five papers
give an important perspective of the developments in flame theory,
and the critical role that Zel'dovich played in them. The second
section examines the issues of heterogeneous combustion and the
recent advances in the field. Material dealing with unsteady cellular
combustion is addressed in the third section, and the fourth
investigates turbulent combustion. The final section treats the
subjects of detonations and explosions.
