Mach stems formed by colliding cylindrical detonation waves
Radiographic studies of laterally colliding, diverging, cylindrical detonation waves in PBX 9404 are reproduced numerically by use of the two dimensional Lagrangian hydrodynamic code 2DL with a shock initiation burn model called Forest Fire. The formation and growth of a Mach stem is described.
