Eventual monotonicity and convergence to travelling fronts for the solutions of parabolic equations in cylinders
Existence of pulsating waves in a model of flames in sprays
A one-dimensional system describing the propagation of low Mach number flames in sprays is studied. We show that pulsating waves may exist when the droplet distribution in the unburnt region is spatially periodic. The range of possible propagation speeds may be either bounded or unbounded, depending on the threshold temperatures of the burning and vaporization rates.
