Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book sets out to understand the behavior of decaying shock waves in both gases and shallow water, in doing so it provides insight and findings which are equally applicable to both disciplines. The author achieves this by examining the range of validity of a numerical approximation, given in an earlier report, for the treatment of decaying shock waves. The book is a meticulously researched piece of work which combines insights from both physics and mathematics to explore the complex interactions of shock waves. It's a must-have for anyone interested in the behavior of shock waves, whether in gases or liquids.
