Introduction to Simple Shock Waves in Air With Numerical Solutions Using Artificial Viscosity /

This book provides an elementary introduction to some one-dimensional fluid flow problems involving shock waves in air. The differential equations of fluid flow are approximated by finite difference equations and these in turn are numerically integrated in a stepwise manner. Artificial viscosity is...
