Tóm tắt

Nghiên cứu phân tích và thực nghiệm về sóng sốc không ổn định, sóng loãng và bề mặt tiếp xúc đã được thực hiện liên tục tại UTIAS kể từ khi thành lập vào năm 1948. Một số cơ sở độc đáo đã được sử dụng để nghiên cứu các thuộc tính của sóng sốc phẳng, hình trụ và hình cầu cũng như sự tương tác của chúng. Các cuộc điều tra cũng đã được thực hiện trên cấu trúc sóng sốc và lớp biên trong argon ion hóa, ngưng tụ hơi nước trong các sóng loãng, dòng chảy từ tính - khí động học, cũng như các vùng phản xạ Mach kiểu thường và các loại phản xạ Mach khác của sóng sốc xiên. Các vụ nổ điều khiển đã được sử dụng làm thiết bị phóng cho các bộ phận bay và ống sốc, cũng như một phương tiện để sản xuất kim cương loại công nghiệp từ graphite và plasma tổng hợp trong deuterium. Các tác động của tiếng nổ siêu thanh lên con người, động vật và công trình cũng đã hình thành một phần quan trọng của các cuộc điều tra. Gần đây, sự quan tâm đã tập trung vào sóng sốc trong các khí có bụi, cấu trúc nhớt và dao động của sóng nổ hình cầu yếu trong không khí, và sự phản xạ của sóng sốc xiên. Trong tất cả các nghiên cứu này, thiết bị và phương pháp tính toán đã đóng vai trò rất quan trọng. Một khảo sát ngắn gọn về công trình này sẽ được trình bày tại đây và chi tiết hơn trong các tài liệu tham khảo liên quan.
