โฆ Synopsis
The paper develops a description for the propagation of an unsupported, unsteady, multidimensional detonation wave for an explosive with a fully resolved reaction zone and a polytropic equation of state. The main features of the detonation are determined once the leading shock surface is known. The principal result is that the detonation velocity in the direction along the normal to the shock is the Chapman-Jouguet velocity plus a correction that is a function of the local total curvature of the shock. A specific example of unsteady propagation is discussed and the stability of a two-dimensional steady solution is examined.

In the design of explosive systems, the generic problem that one must consider is the propagation of a well-developed detonation wave sweeping through an explosive charge with a complex shape. At a given instant of time, the lead detonation shock is a surface that occupies a region of the explosive
The inclusion of detonation shock acceleration effects leads to an extended theory of detonation shock dynamics (DSD). The shock motion is described by an intrinsic partial differential equation specified in terms of the normal shock velocity, D n , the normal shock acceleration D หn, and the curvat
