Title: COMPARISON OF TAYLOR’S THEORY OF SPHERICAL BLAST TO A KNOWN NUMERICAL SOLUTION
Author: ROYADHIKARI, SANDIPKUMAR
Date Created: 2015
Description: Taylor’s blast wave theory was the first of its kind and focused on the dynamics and thermodynamics of spherical blast waves. Taylor’s model was stated as a similarity solution and determined the time-dependent blast radius, as well as the radiall...
