A Shock-Fitting Primer presents the proper numerical treatment of shock wavesand other discontinuities. It comprehensively covers various shock-fitting techniques and describes the historical path that lead to the current theory of shock waves. The author introduces key techniques using a simple scalar equation and then extends to a more complex system of equations. He also presents a new, simplified shock-fitting method and compares it to the standard technique. The text includes many end-of-chapter problems and examples, such as piston motion and steady supersonic flows. The accompanying CD-ROM provides MATLAB® codes that illustrate the shock-fitting techniques discussed in the book.
