Acoustic perturbations to stellar envelopes can lead to the formation of weak shock waves via nonlinear wave-steepening. Close to the stellar surface, the weak shock wave increases in strength and can potentially lead to the expulsion of…

We consider a supersonic flow past an airfoil in the context of the steady, isentropic and irrotational compressible Euler equations. We show that for appropriate data, either a shock forms, in which case certain derivatives of the solution…
We prove shock formation results for the compressible Euler equations and related systems of conservation laws in one space dimension, or three dimensions with spherical symmetry. We establish an $L^\infty$ bound for $C^1$ solutions of the…
Shock wave theory was first studied for gas dynamics, for which shocks appear as compression waves. A shock wave is characterized as a sharp transition, even discontinuity in the flow. In fact, shocks appear in many different physical…
Nonlinear acoustic evolution is often discussed in the context of wave-steepening that leads to shock formation, and is of special interest in applications where the shock continues to strengthen due to a narrowing of its channel or the…
