Abstract:The interactions between turbulent flows and shock waves are important in many natural processes as well as scientific and engineering applications, such as volcanic eruption, supernova explosion, detonation, medical application of shock wave lithotripsy to break up kidney stones, and energy application of the implosion of a cryogenic fuel capsule for inertial confinement fusion where very high rates of compression and expansion waves are generally observed. These phenomena are strongly nonlinear and proven to… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
