We report three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of shocks (${\cal M_{\rm shock}}\geq 4$) interacting with fractal multicloud layers. The evolution of shock-multicloud systems consists of four stages: a shock-splitting phase in which…
We present a criterion for a shock wave existence in relativistic magnetic hydrodynamics with an arbitrary (possibly non-convex) equation of state. The criterion has the form of algebraic inequality that involves equation of state of the…
We develop a new approach and employ it to establish the global existence and nonlinear structural stability of attached weak transonic shocks in steady potential flow past three-dimensional wedges; in particular, the restriction that the…
We reveal that spatially localized vortex solitons become stable in self-focusing nonlinear media when the vortex symmetry-breaking azimuthal instability is eliminated by a nonlocal nonlinear response. We study the main properties of…
Collisionless fast-magnetosonic shocks are often treated as smooth, planar boundaries, yet observations point to organized corrugation of the shock surface. A plausible driver is upstream turbulence. Broadband fluctuations arriving at the…

In this article, we present a description of the behaviour of shock-compressed solid materials following the Geometrical Shock Dynamics (GSD) theory. GSD has been successfully applied to various gas dynamics problems, and here we have…
In this paper we study small shocks of 1D scalar viscous conservation laws with uniformly convex flux and nonlinear dissipation. We show that such shocks are L2 stable independent of the strength of the dissipation, even with large…
We investigate propagation of generic waves on thin planar domain walls effectively described by the scalar DBI model. We pay a particular attention to the possibility of caustic (shock) formation - the process, which may lead to intensive…

Non-uniform temperature fields are analyzed, which arise in the problems of formation of the steady shock wave at impact and ramp loading of metals, exit of the steady shock wave to the free surface, and the shock wave passing through the…
We combine experiments, large scale simulations and continuum models to study the emergence of coherent structures in a suspension of magnetically driven microrollers sedimented near a floor. Collective hydrodynamic effects are predominant…

We explore analytically the structure of relativistic shock and solitary wave solutions in collisionless plasmas. In the wave frame of reference, a cold plasma is flowing from one end and impacting on a low velocity plasma. First we show…
In this article some of the hydrodynamical (HD) aspects of steady shocks as described by the steady-state shock model are reviewed and discussed. It is found that, at least in some of the contexts in which the steady-state model is used,…
The short time evolution of three dimensional small perturbations is studied. Exhibiting spectral asymptotic stability, thin discs are nonetheless shown to host intensive hydrodynamical activity in the shape of non modal growth of initial…
In dispersive media, hydrodynamic singularities are resolved by coherent wavetrains known as dispersive shock waves (DSWs). Only dynamically expanding, temporal DSWs are possible in one-dimensional media. The additional degree of freedom…
