In the case of hyperbolic conservation laws, high-order methods, such as the classical DG method, experience the phenomenon of unwanted high-frequency oscillations in the vicinity of a shock. Shock-capturing methods such as artificial…

We consider self-similar (pseudo-steady) shock reflection at an oblique wall. There are three parameters: wall corner angle, Mach number, angle of incident shock. Ever since Ernst Mach discovered the irregular reflection named after him, it…
