Idea: examine the problem of detonation failure in terms of decoupling of the reaction zone from the shock front (in the mean flow). • Note: most reaction rate laws are strongly temperature dependent. When decoupling occurs, shocked particles are prevented from undergoing thermal runaway. • In a corner-turning geometry, the expansion propagating from the corner induces a curvature in the undisturbed detonation front and may trigger decoupling.

Adapt Skews’ construction for diffracting shock(Shultz & Shepherd, 2001) for hydrocarbon and hydrogen mixtures
Diagnostics & Modeling • Idea: follow a set of Lagrangian particles and perform “numerical dominant balance" of the terms contributing to the material derivative of temperature. • Cast Euler equation in reference frame attached to the shock (use Bertrand coordinates). • Track the detonation front and construct an intrinsic reference frame. • Express Lagrangian (material) derivative DT/Dt in this reference.
Generalization to 2D settings • Bertrand (or intrinsic coordinates) x and h.The local velocity of the front is: • In cylindrical coordinates:

Special case: cylindrical symmetry(Eckett & Shepherd, JFM 2000) • When evaluated in cylindrical (or spherical) symmetry, Eq. (4) loses N1, N2, N3, the divergence, the centripetal and the transverse derivative term. (4)

Axial shock decay model • When evaluated along the axis of symmetry, Eq. (4) loses N1, N2, N3, the centripetal and the transverse derivative term. • In previous investigations, Taylor-Sedov strong spherical blast similarity solution (modified for post-shock energy release) has been used to model the evolution of the detonation front after the corner disturbance has reached the centerline.
