Tailoring the Blast Exposure Conditions in the Shock Tube for Generating Pure, Primary Shock Waves: The End Plate Facilitates Elimination of Secondary Loading of the Specimen. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The end plate mounted at the mouth of the shock tube is a versatile and effective implement to control and mitigate the end effects. We have performed a series of measurements of incident shock wave velocities and overpressures followed by quantification

Liquid Film Condensation behind Shock Waves on the Cold Wall of a Diaphragmless Vertical Shock Tube: An Experimental Study [PDF]
Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2022 The aim of this study was to investigate the condensation of HFC-134a vapor on a shock tube wall behind shock waves. The time-dependent thickness of the condensed liquid film was measured using an optical interference method based on multiple reflections
