This book focuses on the application of classical combustion theory to ignition and flame
propagation in solid-solid and gas-solid systems. It presents experimental investigations in
the areas of local ignition filtration combustion self-propagating high temperature synthesis
and nanopowders protection. The authors highlight analytical formulas used in different areas
of combustion in solids and propose an approach based on classical combustion theory. The book
attempts to analyze the basic approaches to understanding of solid-solid and solid - gas
combustion presented in contemporary literature in a unified approach based on classical
combustion theory.
