This paper studies the expansion into vacuum of a wedge of gas at rest. This problem catches several important classes of wave interactions in the context of 2D Riemann problems. When the gas at rest is a nonideal gas, the gas away from the…
When a plane shock hits a wedge head on, it experiences a reflection-diffraction process, and then a self-similar reflected shock moves outward as the original shock moves forward in time. The complexity of reflection-diffraction…
A system of two-dimensional nonlinear equations of hydrodynamics is considered. It is shown that for the this system in the general case a solution with weak discontinuity-type singularity behaves as a square root of S(x,y,t), where…
Systems of the first order partial differential equations with singular solutions appear in many multiphysics problems and the weak formulation of solutions involve in many cases product of distributions. In this paper we study such a…
We study motion of a phase transition front at a constant temperature between stable and metastable states in fluids with the universal Van der Waals equation of state (which is valid sufficiently close to the fluid's critical point). We…
