Advanced Topics in Combustion I: Combustion Theory and Chemistry

Recent developments in combustion chemistry and aerodynamics. Possible topics include: reaction mechanism development of foundational and large hydrocarbon fuels; computational methods of CSP, DRG and CEMA in chemical kinetics analysis; low -temperature chemistry and flames; radical-induced explosion limits; canonical theory of flames; theory of edge flame stabilization; theory of flamefront instability and propagation; experimentation and modeling of wrinkled flame propagation in laminar and turbulent flows.
