Turbulent premixed combustion involves simultaneous and mutually interacting fluid, chemical, and transport phenomena spanning a wide range of spatial and temporal scales …
INTRODUCTION The nature of type Ia supernovae (SNIa)—thermonuclear explosions of white dwarf (WD) stars—is an open question in astrophysics. There is a general consensus …
JCW had long wanted to write a new monograph on supernovae. Despite an immense explosion in the literature and many review articles, there had not been one since that of …
Fully turbulent flows are characterized by intermittent formation of very localized and intense velocity gradients. These gradients can be orders of magnitude larger than their typical …
Building upon the intrinsic properties of Navier-Stokes dynamics, namely the prevalence of intense vortical structures and the interrelationship between vorticity and strain rate, we …
To better understand the two-way coupling between turbulence and chemistry, the changes in turbulence characteristics through a premixed flame are investigated. Specifically, this …

A series of three-dimensional numerical simulations is used to study the intrinsic stability of high-speed turbulent flames. Calculations model the interaction of a fully resolved premixed …

This paper focuses on two extremes of explosions: the general class of Type Ia supernova (SNIa), which are surprisingly uniform thermonuclear explosions of white dwarf stars, and a …
Spectral kinetic energy transfer by advective processes in turbulent premixed reacting flows is examined using data from a direct numerical simulation of a statistically planar turbulent …
