Abstract

A weakly nonlinear analysis of an overdriven detonation is carried out in the neighborhood of the instability threshold. The result leads to a nonlinear integral-differential equation describing the dynamics of the cellular front and exhibiting "diamond" patterns similar to those observed in experiments. An unexpected outcome of the analysis is a self-sustained mean streaming motion associated with the nonlinear dynamics of a weakly unstable detonation front.
