Abstract:Abstract. Singular surface theory is used to study the evolutionary behaviour of an unsteady three-dimensional motion of a shock wave of arbitrary strength propagating through a non-ideal gas. The dynamical coupling between the shock front and the induced discontinuities behind it is investigated by considering an infinite system of transport equations governing the strength of a shock wave and the induced discontinuities behind it. This infinite system, when subjected to a truncation approximation, efficientl… 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.
