Radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy is efficient and safe in the treatment of fracture nonunions of superficial bones: a retrospective case series

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2017
Background A substantial body of evidence supports the use of focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (fESWT) in the non-invasive treatment of fracture nonunions.

Shock Wave Emissions of a Sonoluminescing Bubble

open access: yes, 1998
A single bubble in water is excited by a standing ultrasound wave. At high intensity the bubble starts to emit light. Together with the emitted light pulse, a shock wave is generated in the liquid at collapse time.

L^2 stability estimates for shock solutions of scalar conservation laws using the relative entropy method

open access: yes, 2009
We consider scalar nonviscous conservation laws with strictly convex flux in one spatial dimension, and we investigate the behavior of bounded L^2 perturbations of shock wave solutions to the Riemann problem using the relative entropy method.

Shock waves

open access: yes, 2003
Shock wave theory was first studied for gas dynamics, for which shocks appear as compression waves. A shock wave is characterized as a sharp transition, even discontinuity in the flow. In fact, shocks appear in many different physical situation and represent strong nonlinearity of the physical processes.

First In Situ Observation of Partial Dislocation-Mediated Plastic Flow in Shocked Single-Crystal Aluminum

open access: yesUltrafast Science
In single-crystal aluminum (Al), partial dislocations are believed to play a crucial role in plasticity under extreme loading conditions; however, their activation has seldom been observed in experiments.

Basic study on promotion of thawing frozen soil by shock loading

open access: yesInternational Journal of Multiphysics, 2008
The aim of study is to confirm a new technique that can crush the frozen soil and/or ice block using underwater shock wave generated by the underwater explosion of explosive.

Shocks in non-loaded bead chains with impurities

open access: yes, 1999
We numerically investigate the problem of the propagation of a shock in an horizontal non-loaded granular chain with a bead interaction force exponent varying from unity to large values.

Exposure of zebra mussels to extracorporeal shock waves demonstrates formation of new mineralized tissue inside and outside the focus zone

open access: yesBiology Open, 2018
The success rate of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) for fracture nonunions in human medicine (i.e. radiographic union at 6 months after ESWT) is only approximately 75%.
