This document is a summary of selected topics from the 29th International Colloquium on the Dynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems (ICDERS) held in Siheung, Korea in July 2023. The conference focused on the dynamic aspects of reactive systems and included presentations on explosions, detonations, ignition, turbulent combustion, and other topics in combustion. The current issue of the journal Shock Waves includes ten papers that were presented at the conference, covering areas such as shock tube design, shock wave methane pyrolysis, detonation physics, and rotating detonation engine propulsion systems. The papers originated from China, India, Japan, Poland, and the USA. The authors and reviewers are thanked for their contributions to this issue. [Extracted from the article]

The current issue includes nine papers that fall into the following broad topic areas, mainly dealing with detonation wave dynamics. The current issue includes papers dealing with combustion in high-speed flow and shock waves, detonation, and deflagration-to-detonation transition, whose authors elected to submit to I Shock Waves i . This issue contains selected papers that were presented at the 28th International Colloquium on the Dynamics of Explosions and Reactive Systems (ICDERS) held in Naples, Italy, on June 19-24, 2022.

An introduction is presented in which the editor discusses reports within the issue on topics including conference papers which were presented at the 28th international symposium on shock waves that was held in Manchester, England from July 17-22, 2011.

The article discusses the 24th international meeting on Military Aspects of Blast and Shock (MABS), held in Halifax, Nova Scotia from 18-23 September, 2016, with the particular focus on thermal simulators and nuclear blasts.

The article discusses the highlights of the 28th International Symposium on Shock Waves held at the University of Manchester in England from July 17 to 22, 2011. The Paul Vieille Lecture was delivered by Professor Kazuyoshi Takayama of Tohoku University in Japan. The winners of the International Shock Wave Institute (ISWI) Student Award were announced. Social events that complemented the scientific programme include the excursion to Chatsworth House.
