SHOCK HYDRODYNAMICS

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4820244· OSTI ID:4820244
The Hugoniot relations, which express conservation of mass, momentum, and energy across a discontinuity, are derived. The relations are applied to a perfect gas for illustration, and graphical methods of solving shock problems are presented. (auth)
