Caluculations and Experiments on Dissociated Carbondioxide by Shock Wave

Periodic Wave Shock solutions of Burgers equations

In this paper we investigate the exact peroidic wave shock solutions of the Burgers equations. Our purpose is to describe the asymptotic behavior of the solution in the cauchy problem for viscid equation with small parametr ε and to discuss in particular the case of periodic wave shock. We show that the solution of this problem approaches the shock type solution for the cauchy problem of the in...

Radio Frequency Heating Coils for Shock Wave Experiments

Radio-frequency eddy current heating of metallic samples in shock wave, ultrasonic and diamond anvil apparatus provides a methodology for obtaining hot samples or hot metallic gaskets (containing a sample) and yet not heating the entire target, ultrasonic assembly or diamond cell. Analysis of a previous design of a radio-frequency (~0.5 MHz) coil demonstrated that the center of 13 mm diameter s...

Laboratory Experiments on Wave Turbulence

This review paper is devoted to a presentation of recent progress in wave turbulence. I first present the context and state of the art of this field of research both experimentally and theoretically. I then focus on the case of wave turbulence on the surface of a fluid, and I discuss the main results obtained by our group: caracterization of the gravity and capillary wave turbulence regimes, th...

Extracorporeal shock waves act by shock wave-gas bubble interaction.

The effect of extracorporeal shock waves on hemoglobin release from red blood cells was recently found to be minimized under minute static excess pressure. It was proposed that this can be explained by shock wave-gas bubble interaction. We substantiated this further by two experiments by applying shock waves to suspended human RBC in a lithotripter at a lower frequency (1 pulse every 5 s) and b...
