Faculty Profile Last Modified Time: 12:12:41 PM Fri, 17 Apr 2020   Contact Information David Wagner Associated Profiles  Associate Professor, Mathematics, University of Houston   Philip Guthrie Hoffman Hall, Room No.: 615    dwagner@uh.edu     (713)743-3460    Web Link    Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations, Nonlinear Hyperbolic Conservation Laws, Combustion Theory, Detonation Waves    Associated Profiles Research and Expertise Appointments  Research and Expertise Research Interests   Theory of systems of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws; Applications of the above to combustion theory, in particular, detonation waves. Most steady plane detonation waves are unstable. For certain parameter values, the instability is one that causes the steady detonation wave to oscillate. This is a plot of a numerical calculation of a pulsating detonation wave. The calculation was performed using the Sanders-Weiser staggered grid scheme for hyperbolic systems in one space dimension. Depicted are: 1. The spatial plot of the gas momentum, after 6032 time steps. 2. The time history of the shock pressure.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Associate Professor Mathematics University of Houston
