Detonation loading in cylindrical structures is a complex phenomenon that involves the rapid exposure of components to high-pressure shock waves generated by explosive events. This process not only ...

Nuclear weapons tests are among the most violent events humans can trigger, and that violence leaves fingerprints in the ...

Astronomers have, for the first time, witnessed a star meeting a dramatic end by exploding twice. In a study published in Nature Astronomy, researchers analyzed the centuries-old remains of supernova ...

Detonation is a supersonic combustion wave, characterized by a shock wave driven by the energy release from closely coupled chemical reactions. It is a typical form of pressure gain combustion, ...

Stars often die with a final burst of beauty. For the first time, astronomers have captured visual proof that a star can explode not once, but twice before fading forever. Using the European Southern ...

Detonation combustion achieves near-constant-volume burning, drastically reducing entropy generation and wasting less energy as heat compared to traditional deflagration propulsion. Its supersonic ...
