Compression Shocks

Compression Shocks is a physical phenomenon in gas dynamics representing a type of shock wave characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous increase in pressure, temperature, and density of a supersonic flow, resulting from the nonlinear steepening of acoustic disturbances in a compressible medium.
