TAYLOR INSTABILITY IN SHOCK ACCELERATION OF COMPRESSIBLE FLUIDS
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4272289
The initial growth of irregularities on an interface between two compressible fluids is studied for impulsive (i.e., shock) acceleration. It was found that the ultimate rate of growth is roughly the same as that given by the incompressible theory, if the initial comnpression of the irregularities and of the fluids is taken into account.
