We investigate the inside structure of one-dimensional reaction-diffusion traveling fronts. The reaction terms are of the monostable, bistable or ignition types. Assuming that the fronts are made of several components with identical…
The spatiotemporal pattern formation is studied in the catalytic carbon monoxide oxidation reaction that takes into account the diffusion processes over the Pt(110) surface, which may contain structurally different areas. These areas are…
This paper is concerned with the existence and qualitative properties of pulsating fronts for spatially periodic reaction-diffusion equations with bistable nonlinearities. We focus especially on the influence of the spatial period and,…
The emergent dynamics in phase-separated mixtures of isometric active and passive Brownian particles is studied numerically in two dimensions. A novel steady-state of well-defined traveling fronts is observed, where the interface between…
Experiments on the diffusion-limited corrosion of porous copper clusters in thin gap cells containing cupric chloride are reported. By carefully comparing corrosion front velocities and concentration profiles obtained by phase-shift…
In this paper, curved fronts are constructed for spatially periodic bistable reaction-diffusion equations under the a priori assumption that there exist pulsating fronts in every direction. Some sufficient and some necessary conditions of…
The problem of front propagation in a stirred medium is addressed in the case of cellular flows in three different regimes: slow reaction, fast reaction and geometrical optics limit. It is well known that a consequence of stirring is the…
Fronts propagating in two-dimensional advection-reaction-diffusion (ARD) systems exhibit rich topological structure. When the underlying fluid flow is periodic in space and time, the reaction front can lock to the driving frequency. We…
Heterogenous reactions typically consist of multiple elementary steps and their rate coefficients are of fundamental importance in elucidating the mechanisms and micro-kinetics of these processes. Transition-state theory (TST) for…
We study the speed of propagation of fronts for the scalar reaction-diffusion equation $u_t = u_{xx} + f(u)$\, with $f(0) = f(1) = 0$. We give a new integral variational principle for the speed of the fronts joining the state $u=1$ to…
We study the evolution of fronts in a bistable reaction-diffusion system when the nonlinear reaction term is spatially non-homogeneous. This equation has been used to model wave propagation in various biological systems. Extending previous…
We study reaction-diffusion systems where diffusion is by jumps whose sizes are distributed exponentially. We first study the Fisher-like problem of propagation of a front into an unstable state, as typified by the A+B $\to$ 2A reaction. We…
Reaction-diffusion processes in two-dimensional percolating structures are investigated. Two different problems are addressed: reaction spreading on a percolating cluster and front propagation through a percolating channel. For reaction…
Frontal polymerization is a promising energy-saving method for rapid fabrication of polymer components with good mechanical properties. In these systems, a small energy input is sufficient to convert monomers, from a liquid or soft solid…
Patterns in reaction-diffusion systems often contain two spatial scales; a long scale determined by a typical wavelength or domain size, and a short scale pertaining to front structures separating different domains. Such patterns naturally…
We consider one-dimensional reaction-diffusion equations for a large class of spatially periodic nonlinearities (including multistable ones) and study the asymptotic behavior of solutions with Heaviside type initial data. Our analysis…
The evolution of the interface propagation in a slowly rotating half-filled horizontal cylinder is studied using MRI. Initially, the cylinder contains two axially segregated bands of small and large particles with a sharp interface. The…
A classification of dynamical systems in terms of their variational properties is reviewed. Within this classification, front propagation is discussed in a non-gradient relaxational potential flow. The model is motivated by transient…
We study flow-induced enhancement of the speed of pulsating traveling fronts for reaction-diffusion equations, and quenching of reaction by fluid flows. We prove, for periodic flows in two dimensions and any combustion-type reaction, that…
We study transition fronts for one-dimensional reaction-diffusion equations with compactly perturbed ignition-monostable reactions. We establish an almost sharp condition on reactions which characterizes the existence and non-existence of…
