The book provides personal memories along with description of
scientific works written by ex-graduate students and research
associates of the late Professor Glass. The described research work
covers a wide range of shock wave phenomena, resulting from seeds
planted by Professor Glass. Professor Glass was born in Poland in
1918. He immigrated together with his parents to Canada at the age
of 12 and received all his professional education at the University
of Toronto, Canada. He became a world recognized expert in shock
wave phenomena, and during his 45 years of active research he
supervised more than 125 master and doctoral students,
post-doctoral fellows and visiting research associates. In this
book seven of his past students/research-associates describe their
personal memories of Professor Glass and present some of their
investigations in shock wave phenomena which sprung from their past
work with Professor Glass. Specifically, these investigations
include underwater shock waves, shock/bubble interaction, medical
applications of shock wave, various types of shock tubes and shock
tube techniques, shock wave attenuation and different types of
shock wave reflections.
