Numerical Simulations of Detonation Re-initiation Behind an Obstacle

This numerical study explored the mechanisms responsible for the re-initiation of a detonation, which quenched while diffracting over a half-cylinder obstacle. Its purpose was to accurately predict when detonation re-initiations occur, determine roles of re-initiation mechanisms, and compare effects...
