dc.description.abstract | The reflection of strong point‐source blast waves is studied using the continuum concept of flow of ideal gases. Methods of obtaining the upper and lower bounds as well as a Taylor series expansion of the position of the reflected shock is considered. The procedure of studying the flow variables near the reflected shock is also described. | en_US |

dc.identifier.citedreference | The sign in front of ½σ12σ must be chosen to be negative for blast wave reflection to insure negative propagation speeds. | en_US |
dc.identifier.citedreference | As mentioned previously, the negative sign in front of ½σ12σ in Eq. (10) must be used. | en_US |
dc.identifier.citedreference | Even though the shock becomes sonic, since it penetrates into regions of increasing sound velocity, it becomes progressively faster. | en_US |
dc.identifier.citedreference | It is the authors’ intention to describe the exact expressions of the characteristics of the blast wave and the derivatives of uIIuII near the rigid boundary in a subsequent paper. | en_US |
dc.identifier.citedreference | This assumption is less restrictive than that for the complete integral curve of the upper bound where the derivatives of uIIuII of any order are set equal to zero everywhere along the reflected shock. | en_US |
