Shock waves and their significance

Shock waves are strong pressure waves resulting from irreversible processes in elastic media, including gases, liquids, or solids, generated by supersonic aircraft, explosions, or phenomena that cause rapid changes in pressure.

Conference details

The conference proceedings of the 34th International Symposium on Shock Waves (ISSW34), held in Daegu, Korea, in 2023, cover theoretical, experimental, and computational studies of these shock waves and associated phenomena, addressing both fundamental and applied aspects. They serve as the most up-to-date resource for physicists, chemists, engineers, and applied mathematicians involved in shock wave research.

Book content overview

The three-volume set present the latest studies on diverse topics, including shock waves in gases, liquids, and solids, as well as in internal flows, detonation, supersonic and hypersonic flows, nozzle flows, and supersonic jet. It also explores emerging topics such as advanced shock tube design and application, recent development in diagnostics and flow visualization, shock waves in multiphase flows, and detonation engines.

Volume 1 details

Volume 1 contains 52 articles covering the fundamentals of shock waves, including physical and chemical properties of shock waves, shock-vortex interaction, and numerical and experimental techniques.
