On Shock-Wave Phenomena; Refraction of Shock Waves at a Gaseous Interface
Physical Review, 1951This paper treats the problem of the refraction of a shock wave at a gaseous interface. The governing equations are formulated and analyzed. Continuous families of solutions are obtained numerically for a number of gas combinations at varying angles of incidence on a plane interface between ideal gases (characterized by a certain range of parameters ...

This paper discusses the Skin Surface Shock Wave which is generated after we impart an impulsive force to human skin. The force is given by an air jet during 200 [ms]. The basic behavior of shock wave is measured by a high speed camera with the frame rate of 2000 [Hz].

Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy has significantly altered the management of symptomatic renal and ureteral calculi. Yet in an effort to limit the potentially harmful effects of shock waves, while still maintaining or maximizing stone fragmentation, one must understand basic shock wave physics. This report presents a brief overview of the physical

Explosive-Induced Shock Waves. Part II. Oblique Shock Waves
Journal of Applied Physics, 1958The explosive production of oblique shock waves in solids is analyzed in the approximation that third and higher order terms in the shock strength can be neglected, and a procedure is developed for calculating the attenuation of the shocks. Application is made to the problem of determining the equation of state of the burned explosives gas.

Interaction of Nonuniform Shock Waves
Journal of Applied Physics, 1956The basic interactions of nonuniform shock waves in one-dimensional unsteady and two-dimensional steady flow, are analyzed by mapping into the hodograph plane, neglecting effects of third and higher orders in the shock strength. The resulting equations are linear and can be solved by straightforward numerical calculation.

Reflection and Diffraction of Shock Waves and Shock-Wave Configurations
2012There are two phenomena, which can result from interaction of a shock wave (SW) with a solid surface. A SWreflects off a surface if the angle of incidence is less than 90°. If the angle of incidence is more than 90°, the shock wave diffracts over a surface.
