Abstract

In the last ten years, experimental and theoretical studies on shock interactions under the condition of a moving gas ahead of a shock wave have been made in the Shock Wave Laboratory, University of Science and Technology of China. In the experimental effort, a wave interaction type of facility and a new combination type of facility have been constructed and the studies on shock interaction have been made in the two facilities. In the theoretical approach, the (geometrical) shock dynamics theory has been extended to the case of moving gases ahead of shocks. Basic equations and relations for this case have already been established. This paper summarizes the basic ideas and methods of the experimental and theoretical studies mentioned above.
