Shock waves of arbitrary strength in the Euler equations for compressible media are studied. The admissibility condition for a shock wave is shown to be equivalent to its formation according to the entropy production criterion. The Riemann problem with large data has a unique admissible solutions. These quantitative results are based on the exact global expressions for the basic physical variables as the states move along the Hugoniot and wave curves.

Abstract A system of partial differential equations describing the one-dimensional motion of an inviscid self-gravitating and spherical symmetric dusty gas cloud, is considered. Using the method of the kinematics of one-dimensional motion of shock waves, the evolution equation for the spherical shock wave of arbitrary strength in interstellar dusty gas clouds is derived. By applying first order truncation approximation procedure, an efficient system of ordinary differential equations describing shock propagation, which can be regarded as a good approximation of infinite hierarchy of the system. The truncated equations, which describe the shock strength and the induced discontinuity, are used to analyze the behavior of the shock wave of arbitrary strength in a medium of dusty gas. The results are obtained for the exponents from the successive approximation and compared with the results obtained by Guderley’s exact similarity solution and characteristic rule (CCW approximation). The effects of the parameters of the dusty gas and cooling-heating function on the shock strength are depicted graphically.

This article applies nonstandard analysis to study the generalized solutions of entropy and energy across one-dimensional shock waves in a compressible, inviscid, perfect gas. Nonstandard analysis is an area of modern mathematics that studies number systems that contain both infinitely large and infinitely small numbers. For an inviscid shock wave, it is assumed that the shock thickness occurs on an infinitesimal interval and that the jump functions for the field variables are smoothly defined on this interval. A weak converse to the existence of the entropy peak is derived and discussed. Generalized solutions of the Euler equations for entropy and energy are then derived for both theoretical and realistic normalized velocity profiles.

AbstractIn this article, we considered the evolutionary behaviour of one-dimensional shock waves propagating through a relaxing gas with dust particles in a duct with spatially varying cross section. We adopted the procedure based on the kinematics of a one-dimensional motion to derive an infinite hierarchy of transport equations, which describe the evolutionary behaviour of shock of arbitrary strength propagating through the medium. The first three truncation approximations are considered, and the results are compared with existing results in the absence of relaxation and dust particles. The effects of dust particles and relaxation are studied using numerical computations. The results are depicted for different values of dust and relaxation parameters.

Single crystals of Al were loaded by 15 to 40 GPa shock waves at 77 K with a pulse duration of 1.0 to 0.5 μs and a residual deformation of ∼1%. The analysis of deformation structure peculiarities allows the deformation history to be re-established.After a 20 to 40 GPa loading the dislocation density in the recovered samples was about 1010 cm-2. By measuring the thickness of the 40 GPa shock front in Al, a plastic deformation velocity of 1.07 x 108 s-1 is obtained, from where the moving dislocation density at the front is 7 x 1010 cm-2. A very small part of dislocations moves during the whole time of compression, i.e. a total dislocation density at the front must be in excess of this value by one or two orders. Consequently, due to extremely high stresses, at the front there exists a very unstable structure which is rearranged later with a noticeable decrease in dislocation density.

The two-phase model of vapor-gas-liquid medium in axisymmetric two-dimensional formulation, taking into account vaporization is constructed. The nonstationary processes of boiling vapor-water mixture outflow from high-pressure vessels as a result of depressurization are studied. The problems of shock waves action on filled by gas-liquid mixture volumes are solved.

The structure of optical dispersive shock waves in nematic liquid crystals is investigated as the power of the optical beam is varied, with six regimes identified, which complements previous work pertinent to low power beams only. It is found that the dispersive shock wave structure depends critically on the input beam power. In addition, it is known that nematic dispersive shock waves are resonant and the structure of this resonance is also critically dependent on the beam power. Whitham modulation theory is used to find solutions for the six regimes with the existence intervals for each identified. These dispersive shock wave solutions are compared with full numerical solutions of the nematic equations, and excellent agreement is found.

The experimental progress of laser equation of state (EOS) studies at Shanghai Institute of Laser Plasma (SILP) is discussed in this paper. With a unique focal system, the uniformity of the laser illumination on the target surface is improved and a laser-driven shock wave with good spatial planarity is obtained. With an inclined aluminum target plane, the stability of shock waves are studied, and the corresponding thickness range of the target of laser-driven shock waves propagating steadily are given. The shock adiabats of Cu, Fe, SiO2 are experimentally measured. The pressure in the material is heightened remarkably with the flyer increasing pressure, and the effect of the increasing pressure is observed. Also, the high-pressure shock wave is produced and recorded in the experimentation of indirect laser-driven shock waves with the hohlraum target.

We investigate the special cases of the formation of shocks in the accretion disks around the nonrotating (Schwarzschild) black holes in cases where one or few stars perturb the disk. We model the structure of disk with a 2D fully general relativistic hydrodynamic code and investigate a variety of cases in which the stars interacting with the disk are captured at various locations. We have found the following results: (1) if the stars perturb the disk at nonsymmetric locations, a moving one-armed spiral shock wave is produced and it destroys the disk eventually; (2) if the disk is perturbed by a single star located close to the black hole, a standing shock wave is produced while the disk becomes an accretion tori; (3) if the disk is perturbed by stars at symmetric locations, moving two-armed spiral shock waves are produced while the disk reaches a steady state; (4) continuous injection of matter into the stable disk produces a standing shock wave behind the black hole. Our outcomes reinforce the view that different perturbations on the stable accretion disk carry out different types of shock waves which produce Quasi-Periodic Oscillation (QPO) phenomena in galactic black hole candidates and it is observed as a X-ray.
