For want of a complete analysis of multidimensional flows in preasymptotic days, it was natural to try to identify special characteristics that play particularly important roles in the understanding of flame behavior. Flame speed and temperature are examples of such characteristics that have already been identified; a more subtle characteristic, introduced by Karlovitz, is flame stretch. The authors start by discussing this concept, so as to have it available when we come to discussing general slowly varying and near-equidiffusional flames. (Author).

An introduction to far-reaching developments in theoretical combustion, with special emphasis on flame stability, a topic that has, to date, benefited most from the application of modern asymptotic methods. The authors provide a modern view of flame theory, and a complete description of the longstanding ignition and explosion problems, including the solutions that were made available independently by Kapila and Kassoy through activation-energy asymptotics, the main theme of this monograph.

We shall now examine the left stability boundary that was uncovered in lecture 5 in our discussion of NEFs (figure 5.3). The boundary is associated with instabilities leading to cellular flames, i.e. flames whose surfaces are broken up into distinct luminous regions (cells) separated by dark lines. Each line is a ridge of high curvature, convex towards the burnt gas. For a nominally flat flame these cells are very unsteady, growing and subdividing in a chaotic fashion; but curvature, for example, can make stationary.
