Accurate prediction of the effects of an adjacent wall on the global flow behaviour behind a
diffracting shock wave plays a crucial role in describing high speed flow around complex …

CRAMJETS have been extensively studied since the 1950s due to the to highly complex
nature of the flows, short flow residency times, difficulties in mixing fuel and oxidizer in the …

The phenomenon of a classical two-dimensional single diffraction of a planar shock wave
has been extensively studied, with work focusing on the understanding of the dynamics of …

Unsteady shock wave propagation through ducts has many applications, ranging from blast
wave shelter design to advanced high-speed propulsion systems. The research objective of …
