A domain decomposition technique for small amplitude wave interactions with shock waves by Vevek, U. S., Elhadidi, Basman, Chan, Wai Lee

“…To preserve low dispersion and dissipation, a DRP scheme is used to simulate the incoming and outgoing waves in the linear region. To capture the shock wave interaction and motion, a hybrid central-upwind flux scheme is used in the nonlinear region that contains the shock. …”

Cavitation inception from transverse waves in a thin liquid gap by Rapet, Julien, Quinto-Su, Pedro A., Ohl, Claus-Dieter

“…It is well known that dielectric breakdown in a liquid generates cavitation bubbles and shock waves. Here we demonstrate that when the liquid is bounded by two solid glass boundaries (10–20-μm separation), rings of microscopic bubbles can be nucleated around the laser-induced cavitation bubble. …”

Topology of the second-order constitutive model based on the Boltzmann–Curtiss kinetic equation for diatomic and polyatomic gases by Singh, Satyvir, Karchani, Abolfazl, Sharma, Kuldeep, Myong, Rho Shin

“…The trajectories of solutions of two representative flow problems—a force-driven Poiseuille gas flow and the inner structure of shock waves—were then plotted on the topology of the constitutive model, demonstrating the indispensable role of the topology of the constitutive model in fluid dynamics.…”

Role of Atwood number on flow morphology of a planar shock-accelerated square bubble : a numerical study by Singh, Satyvir

“…For At > 0, the speed of the shock wave traveling along with the bubble inner surface is often less than that of the incident shock wave and greater than that of the transmitted shock wave. …”

Explosion and temperature resistance of underground structures by free hexagons by Prochazka, Petr P., Lok, Tat S.

“…It appears that sudden change of loading such as shock wave impinging on underground structures, which is mostly linked up with an extreme increase of temperature, causes immense disasters, which involve loss of human lives, heavy machine damage, long-lasting traffic troubles, decreasing of bearing capacity of the structural system, etc. …”

Topologically enhanced harmonic generation in a nonlinear transmission line metamaterial by Wang, You, Lang, Li-Jun, Lee, Ching Hua, Zhang, Baile, Chong, Yidong

“…Nonlinear transmission lines (NLTLs) are nonlinear electronic circuits used for parametric amplification and pulse generation, and it is known that left-handed NLTLs support enhanced harmonic generation while suppressing shock wave formation. We show experimentally that in a left-handed NLTL analogue of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) lattice, harmonic generation is greatly increased by the presence of a topological edge state. …”
