We report the first experiments on divergent shock-driven Richtmyer–Meshkov instability
(RMI) at well-controlled single-mode interfaces. These experiments are performed in a novel …

The Richtmyer–Meshkov instability on a three-dimensional single-mode light/heavy
interface is experimentally studied in a converging shock tube. The converging shock tube …

Richtmyer–Meshkov (RM) instability at a single-mode interface impacted by a cylindrical
divergent shock with low to moderate Mach numbers is investigated experimentally. The …

A novel shock tube is designed to investigate the nonlinear feature of convergent Richtmyer–
Meshkov instability on a single-mode interface formed by a soap film technique. The shock …

The evolution of an layer surrounded by air is experimentally studied in a semi-annular
convergent shock tube by high-speed schlieren photography. The gas layer with a …

Shock-tube experiments on Richtmyer–Meshkov (RM) instability at a perturbed SF layer
surrounded by air, induced by a cylindrical divergent shock, are reported. To explore the …

An analytical model for the initial growth period of the planar Richtmyer–Meshkov instability
is presented for the case of a reflected shock, which corresponds in general to light-to-heavy …

The high-amplitude effect on the Richtmyer–Meshkov instability flow characteristics is
investigated by examining the interaction of a planar shock with a single-mode air–SF6 …

The convergent Richtmyer–Meshkov instability (RMI) of an layer with a uniform outer surface
and a sinusoidal inner surface surrounded by air (generated by a novel soap film technique) …

In convergent geometry, the Bell-Plesset (BP) effects modify the growth of hydrodynamic
instability in comparison with the planar geometry. They account for acceleration …
