Energy concentration by converging shock waves in gases

Converging shock waves have been studied experimentally in a shock tube, and numerically using inviscid calculations and the theory of geometrical shock dynamics. The converging shock waves were created in a shocktube with two modular test sections designed to create cylindrical respectively spheric...
