ICDERS 2025, 30th International Colloquium on the Dynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems
Date/Time
July 27, 2025 - August 1, 2025
A multi-day meeting on the Dynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems
Event Description
The International Colloquium on the Dynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems (ICDERS) has been held every two years since its founding in 1967 by N. Manson, A.K. Oppenheim, and R. Soloukhin. The colloquium has been the premier international forum for the presentation of scientific contributions in the fields of explosions and unsteady combustion, where there is strong coupling between reaction and fluid mechanics.
 
The 30th edition of ICDERS will be held from July 27-August 1, 2025 in Ottawa, Canada.
