Journal ArticleDOI
Origins of the deflagration-to-detonation transition in gas-phase combustion
Elaine S. Oran,Vadim N. Gamezo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized a 10-year theoretical and numerical effort to understand the deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT), which resulted in the development of numerical algorithms for solving coupled partial and ordinary differential equations and a new method for adaptive mesh refinement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermonuclear Supernovae: Simulations of the Deflagration Stage and Their Implications
TL;DR: Large-scale, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the deflagration stage of a thermonuclear supernova explosion show the formation and evolution of a highly convoluted turbulent flame in the gravitational field of an expanding carbon-oxygen white dwarf.
Journal ArticleDOI
Jet-Induced Explosions of Core Collapse Supernovae
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors numerically studied the explosion of a supernova caused by supersonic jets present in its center and showed that the explosion is entirely due to the action of the jets on the surrounding star and does not depend on neutrino transport or re-acceleration of a stalled shock.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Numerical Study of a Two-Dimensional H2-O2-Ar Detonation Using a Detailed Chemical Reaction Model
TL;DR: In this paper, two-dimensional computations of the propagation of a detonation in a low-pressure, argon-diluted mixture of hydrogen and oxygen were performed using a detailed chemical reaction mechanism.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors numerically studied the explosion of a supernova caused by supersonic jets present in its center and showed that the jet-induced explosion is entirely due to the action of the jets on the surrounding star and does not depend on neutrino transport or reacceleration of a stalled shock.
