Description:
A shock wave is generated by a uniform compressive piston motion and passes into a channel of slowly varying cross-section. A relation in closed form is obtained between shock strength and the area of the channel and is used to discuss converging cylindrical and spherical shocks. © 1958, Cambridge University Press.
