AB  - The purpose of this research is to explore an explanation of detonation soot track formation, comparing with previous hypothesis of formation mechanism. Focusing on the role of shear stress in transporting soot along the surface, we investigated the non-reactive Mach reflections numerically with three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes simulations. Numerical results are compared with a two-dimensional detonation simulation and used to investigate the effect of shear stress spatial and temporal variations on soot redistributions. The motions of soot due to surface shear stress are numerically examined with treating soot as particles and fluid parcel.
