The hybersonic navier-stokes approximation for the normal shock structure of a perfect gas with the Sutherland viscosity law: Review and extension

By means of a four-region asymptotic analysis, a uniformly valid description of the Sutherland-viscosity-law Navier-Stokes structure of the normal shock wave in the hypersonic approximation is obtained.
