Abstract

Shock waves behave their interesting characteristic when interacting with various fluctuations. In this paper, shock wave behaviors influenced by controlled disturbances, thermal bubble, turbulence and boundary layer are discussed based on experimental results. Also, their applications to aerospace engineering will be suggested.
