In this paper, the process of the gas explosion waves was investigated in a closed pipeline. The research indicated that the interaction between pressure waves and flame waves were extensive in the course of gas explosion, which took effect of both enhancement and inhibition, and played a leading role at different stages. Not only could the flame waves raise the pressure peak and amplitude, but they also compressed the ascent stage of the pressure waves, stretched the descent stage. Eventually, detonation waves may come into being.

An experimental study was performed on the growth of flame front turbulence by stimulating a laminar propagating flame with weak pressure waves, which were generated by sudden breaking of the membrane separating a small chamber from the combustion chamber. The flame front behavior was explored by using high-speed schlieren photography. About one millisecond after the first weak pressure wave passed the flame front, a very fine disturbance appeared at the central part of the flame front, where no effect of the wall turbulence could appear. Then, the area and strength of the disturbance were observed to increase rapidly. The effects of the pressure wave intensity, fuel concentration, and fuel type on the growth of this type of flame front turbulence were examined in detail.

The erosion caused by jets issued from hydraulic structures progressively develops a confined scour-hole on the riverbed. A realistic scour assessment must consider both the influence of the air entrained when the jet plunges into the pool and the flow patterns induced by bottom geometry. This experimental study systematically analyzes the combined influence of jet aeration and pool confinement on the dynamic pressures affecting the water–rock interface and inside 3D fissures around a block. The results show that confinement reduces mean pressures and pressure fluctuations when the pool is relatively deep, but almost no influence is found when the pool is shallow, while air entrainment has an opposite effect. Three mechanisms are identified, two of them depend on the pool depth. Furthermore, when a block is mobile, pressures are attenuated inside the surrounding joints. The consequent block vibrations and the presence of air reduce pressure waves celerity inside the fissures.
