Although experimental evidence for the correlation between early flame kernel development and cycle-to-cycle variations (CCV) in spark ignition (SI) engines was provided long ago, there is still a lack of fundamental understanding of early…

Reaction-diffusion equations describe various spatially extended processes that unfold as traveling fronts moving at constant velocity. We introduce and solve analytically a model that, besides such fronts, supports solutions advancing as…
