Effect of a columnar defect on the shape of slow-combustion fronts
M. Myllys, J. Maunuksela, J. Merikoski +4
We report experimental results for the behavior of slow-combustion fronts in the presence of a columnar defect with excess or reduced driving, and compare them with those of mean-f…

Temporal and spatial persistence of combustion fronts
J. Merikoski, J. Maunuksela, M. Myllys +2
The spatial and temporal persistence, or first-return distributions are measured for slow combustion fronts in paper. The stationary temporal and (perhaps less convincingly) spatia…

Kinetic Roughening in Slow Combustion of Paper
M. Myllys, J. Maunuksela, M. Alava +3
Results of experiments on the dynamics and kinetic roughening of one-dimensional slow-combustion fronts in three grades of paper are reported. Extensive averaging of the data allow…
