ShareClassic papers in shock compression science.
Author(s) : JOHNSON J. N., CHERET R.
Type of monograph: Book
Summary
This collection of basic papers in shock compression science makes available not only some of the most important classic papers on shock waves by Poisson, Rankine, Earnshaw, Riemann, and Hugoniot, which remain important references, but also includes two path-breaking papers from the 1940s on shocks in solids and fluids by theorists Bethe and Weyl, as well as works by Taylor and Rayleigh that bridge the gap between the early and recent periods. The ideas and results of these classic papers remain of current interest, which makes this collection a valuable historical resource and a vital reference for those working in the field.
