Within the framework of a two-fluid description possible pathways for the generation of fast flows (dynamical as well as steady) in the lower solar atmosphere is established. It is shown that a primary plasma flow (locally sub-Alfv\'enic)…

This paper is concerned with curved fronts of bistable reaction-diffusion equations in spatially periodic media for dimensions $N\geq 2$. The curved fronts concerned are transition fronts connecting $0$ and $1$. Under a priori assumption…

When designing high-efficiency spark-ignition (SI) engines to operate at high compression ratios, one of the main issues that have to be addressed is detonation development from a pre-ignition front. In order to control this phenomenon, it…

This paper is concerned with the analysis of speed-up of reaction-diffusion-advection traveling fronts in infinite cylinders with periodic boundary conditions. The advection is a shear flow with a large amplitude and the reaction is…
