Abstract In this work, we consider the system of partial differential equations describing one-dimensional (1D) radially symmetric (i.e., cylindrical or spherical) flow of a nonideal gas with small solid dust particles. We analyze the implosion of cylindrical and spherical symmetric strong shock waves in a mixture of a nonideal gas with small solid dust particles. An evolution equation for the strong cylindrical and spherical shock waves is derived by using the Maslov technique based on the kinematics of 1D motion. The approximate value of the similarity exponent describing the behavior of strong shocks is calculated by applying a first-order truncation approximation. The obtained approximate values of similarity exponent are compared with the values of the similarity exponent obtained from Whitham’s rule and Guderley’s method. All the above computations are performed for the different values of mass fraction of dust particles, relative specific heat, and the ratio of the density of dust particle to the density of the mixture and van der Waals excluded volume.

The propagation of an initially spherical shock wave in a polytrope with a magnetic field has been studied. The model chosen for the purpose was that of a poly trope with a toroidal magnetic field given previously by Sinha. Butler's method has been extended to transform the set of governing partial differential equations into a set of ordinary differential equations involving derivatives in the direction of propagation of the shock element at any point. An approximate solution is obtained and the effect of the toroidal magnetic field on the geometry of the front as well as on the effects brought about by the shock is discussed.

In the present chapter we investigated the self similar flow behind a spherical shock wave propagating in a medium with increasing density, in the presence of magnetic fields. The medium is assumed to be non gravitational due to the heavy nucleus at origin. The medium ahead and behind the shock front are assumed to be inviscid. The initial density of gas is assumed to vary as some power of distance. It is assumed that gas is grey and opaque. The assumption of optically thick grey gas is physically consistant with the neglect of radiation pressure and radiation energy. Total energy of the flow field behind the spherical shock is assumed to be increasing with time, where the gas ahead of the shock is assumed to be at rest. The results of numerical calculations were shown in the form of graphs. A complete study was made for axial and azimuthal magnetic field. Also the effect of variation of initial density behind the shock, shock velocity and respective magnetic fields were investigated.
