When a plane shock hits a two-dimensional 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 experimental, computational,…
The Van der Waals equation (VdW-EoS) is a prototype equation of state for realistic systems, because it contains the excluded volume and the particle interactions. Additionally, the simulated annealing (and the similar simulated…
