Title: Solutions of the Noh Problem for Various Equations of State Using Lie Groups

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1167· OSTI ID:1167

A method for developing invariant equations of state for which solutions of the Noh problem will exist is developed. The ideal gas equation of state is shown to be a special case of the general method. Explicit solutions of the Noh problem in planar, cylindrical and spherical geometry are determined for a Mie-Gruneisen and the stiff gas equation of state.
