This book offers comprehensive coverage of compressible flow
phenomena and their applications, and is intended for
undergraduate/graduate students, practicing professionals, and
researchers interested in the topic. Thanks to the clear
explanations provided of a wide range of basic principles, the
equations and formulas presented here can be understood with only a
basic grasp of mathematics. The book particularly focuses on shock
waves, offering a unique approach to the derivation of shock wave
relations from conservation relations in fluids together with a
contact surface, slip line or surface; in addition, the thrust of a
rocket engine and that of an air-breathing engine are also
formulated. Furthermore, the book covers important fundamentals of
various aspects of physical fluid dynamics and engineering,
including one-dimensional unsteady flows, and two-dimensional
flows, in which oblique shock waves and Prandtl-Meyer expansion can
be observed.

Ram accelerators are among the most advanced tools for generating
fluid dynamcis data in supersonic reacting systems. They require
the combined action of combustion, wave systems and turbulence and
are still a serious challenge for physicists and engineers. This
book will serve as an introductionary textbook on ram accelerators
and gives a thorough overview on research activities, performance
modeling and high-pressure detonation dynamics.
This is the first volume of a two volume set which presents the
results of the 31st International Symposium on Shock Waves
(ISSW31), held in Nagoya, Japan in 2017. It was organized with
support from the International Shock Wave Institute (ISWI), Shock
Wave Research Society of Japan, School of Engineering of Nagoya
University, and other societies, organizations, governments and
industry. The ISSW31 focused on the following areas: Blast waves,
chemical reacting flows, chemical kinetics, detonation and
combustion, ignition, facilities, diagnostics, flow visualization,
spectroscopy, numerical methods, shock waves in rarefied flows,
shock waves in dense gases, shock waves in liquids, shock waves in
solids, impact and compaction, supersonic jet, multiphase flow,
plasmas, magnetohyrdrodynamics, propulsion, shock waves in internal
flows, pseudo-shock wave and shock train, nozzle flow, re-entry
gasdynamics, shock waves in space, Richtmyer-Meshkov instability,
shock/boundary layer interaction, shock/vortex interaction, shock
wave reflection/interaction, shock wave interaction with dusty
media, shock wave interaction with granular media, shock wave
interaction with porous media, shock wave interaction with
obstacles, supersonic and hypersonic flows, sonic boom, shock wave
focusing, safety against shock loading, shock waves for material
processing, shock-like phenomena, and shock wave education. These
proceedings contain the papers presented at the symposium and serve
as a reference for the participants of the ISSW 31 and individuals
interested in these fields.
