On March, 2025, Victor Lafaurie defended his PhD "Pulsed plasma approach for mild or strong ignition of a detonation wave using gradient of atomic species". Abstract : This thesis presents a study conducted on the ignition of a detonation wave with non-equilibrium plasma. This form of plasma-assisted combustion has been of recent increased interest with the developments of new forms of detonation-based propulsion and their implementation into real...
