Overview

This book is a comprehensive state-of-the-knowledge summation of shock wave reflection phenomena from a phenomenological point of view. It includes a thorough introduction to oblique shock wave reflections, dealing with both regular and Mach types. It also covers in detail the corresponding two- and three-shock theories. The book moves on to describe reflection phenomena in a variety of flow types, as well as providing the resolution of the Neumann paradox.

From the reviews of the second edition: A must-read for anyone needing an overview, taxonomy, and a crisp and concise introduction to the fundamentals of plane oblique shock wave reflection. ... The book is essential reading for anyone working in these areas. It is for a graduate level reader who needs to come up to speed in shock reflections. Its extensive list of references, in itself worth the book's price, is a good source of material for further studies.
