The effect of the aerodynamic focusing of inertial particles is investigated in both symmetric and non-symmetric cases of interaction of two plane shock waves in the stationary dusty-gas flow. The particle mass concentration is assumed to be small. Particle trajectories and concentration are calculated numerically with the full Lagrangian approach. A parametric study of the flow is performed in order to find the values of the governing parameters corresponding to the maximum focusing effect.
