Combustion is a fascinating phenomenon coupling complex chemistry
to transport mechanisms and nonlinear fluid dynamics. This book
provides an up-to-date and comprehensive presentation of the
nonlinear dynamics of combustion waves and other non-equilibrium
energetic systems. The major advances in this field have resulted
from analytical studies of simplified models performed in close
relation with carefully controlled laboratory experiments. The key
to understanding the complex phenomena is a systematic reduction of
the complexity of the basic equations. Focusing on this fundamental
approach, the book is split into three parts. Part I provides
physical insights for physics-oriented readers, Part II presents
detailed technical analysis using perturbation methods for
theoreticians, and Part III recalls the necessary background
knowledge in physics, chemistry and fluid dynamics. This structure
makes the content accessible to newcomers to the physics of
unstable fronts in flows, whilst also offering advanced material
for scientists who wish to improve their knowledge.
