This module connects ideas across topics in a first semester introductory chemistry course to explore the impacts of combustion reactions. By motivating students to understand the relationship between ...

Researchers from Skoltech have published a paper in the journal Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena presenting an analysis of steady propagating combustion waves—from slow flames to supersonic detonation ...

Researchers at Sandia and Argonne national laboratories have demonstrated, for the first time, a method to successfully predict pressure-dependent chemical reaction rates. It's an important ...

Fires in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) differ from wildland fires. Combustible materials in the WUI have different chemical compositions and densities, and are present in different quantities, ...
