Abstract

We propose to investigate a mathematical model for combustion in a rod made of periodically alternating thin layers of two combustible materials such as those occurring in gun propellants. We apply the homogenization theory to resolve the fast oscillations of the model’s coefficients across adjacent layers, and set up numerical simulations to better understand the reactions occurring in such media.
