It also investigates the spatial distribution characteristics of the resulting shock wave loads. Based on dimensional analysis theory, a theoretical analysis of the shock wave overpressure distribution in free air fields is conducted. Utilizing the derived dimensionless function relationships, the hydrocode AUTODYN is employed to investigate the effects of charge structure parameters and explosive combinations on the internal overdriven detonation phenomena and the distribution of shock wave loads. It is found that the overdriven detonation phenomenon in the inner layer of composite charges increases the strength of the axial detonation wave,thereby enhancing the intensity of the primary end wave formed upon refraction into the air, which affects the distribution characteristics of the shock wave overpressure. Research has shown that increasing the thickness ratio and detonation velocity ratio of composite charges is beneficial for exacerbating the phenomenon of overdriven detonation, improving the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure. This gain effect gradually weakens with the propagation of shock waves. When overdriven detonation occurs inside the composite charge, the detonation pressure first increases and then decreases. The Mach reflection pressure of the composite charge with a larger aspect ratio is attenuated to a greater extent. In addition, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the shock wave energy gradually flows from the axial direction to the radial direction. Therefore, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure gradually decrease.展开更多

A database from a validated direct numerical simulation is analyzed using conditional averaging and a two-dimensional clustering methodology to elucidate the statistical characteristics of both positive and negative HAWHFs within the interaction region. The results reveal that the interaction considerably affects the temporal attributes of the HAWHFs, leading to an extended lifespan for the positive HAWHFs and an increased interval between the occurrences of negative HAWHFs. The structural characteristics of the identified HAWHFs are delineated based on the evolution of population density, aspect ratio, and both absolute and relative distances throughout the interaction. The joint probability density functions of the relative positioning of two adjacent structures indicate that, away from the reattachment point, the positive HAWHFs align in the spanwise direction, displaying similarities with the negative HAWHFs. Moreover, a conditional analysis of flow structures associated with HAWHFs is conducted. This analysis of the conditionally averaged three-dimensional fields reveals that the interaction fosters larger-scale organizational patterns in the downstream region. However, the formation of positive and negative HAWHFs remains largely unaffected by the interaction, with the former predominantly linked to a two-layer temperature structure and the latter primarily associated with a pair of oblique vortices.展开更多

However, the analysis and prediction of interaction lengths have not been sufficiently investigated. First, this study presents a theoretical scaling analysis and validates it through wind tunnel experiments. It conducts detailed control volume analysis of mass conservation, considering the differences between inviscid and viscous cases. Then, three models for analysing interaction length under gradual expansion waves are derived. Related experiments using schlieren photography are conducted to validate the models in a Mach 2.73 flow. The interaction scales are captured at various relative distances between the shock impingement location and the expansion regions with wedge angles ranging from 12° to 15° and expansion angles of 9°, 12°, and 15°. Three trend lines are plotted based on different expansion angles to depict the relationship between normalised interaction length and normalised interaction strength metric. In addition, the relationship between the coefficients of the trend line and the expansion angles is introduced to predict the interaction length influenced by gradual expansion waves. Finally, the estimation of normalised interaction length is derived for various coefficients within a unified form.展开更多

Shock wave/boundary layer interaction in a 24°turning angle of the compression ramp at Mach number 2.9 controlled by steady microjet is investigated using direct numerical simulation.Three different jet spacings ...Shock wave/boundary layer interaction in a 24°turning angle of the compression ramp at Mach number 2.9 controlled by steady microjet is investigated using direct numerical simulation.Three different jet spacings which are termed as sparse,moderate and dense are considered,and the induced vortex system and shock structures are compared.A moderate jet spacing configuration is found to generate counter-rotating vortex pairs that transport high-momentum fluid towards the vicinity of wall and strengthen the boundary layer to resist separation,reducing the separation region.The dense jet spacing configuration creates a larger momentum deficit region,reducing the friction downstream of the corner.Analysis of pressure and pressure gradient reveals that dense jet spacing configuration reduces the intensity of separation shock.The impact of varying jet spacings on the turbulent kinetic energy transport mechanism is also investigated by decomposing the budget terms in the transport equation.Furthermore,the spectral characteristics of the separation region are studied using power spectral density and dynamic mode decomposition methods,revealing that moderate jet spacing configuration suppresses low-frequency fluctuations in the separation region.展开更多

文摘The manipulation of intense shock waves to either attenuate or enhance damage has long been a key goal in the domain of impact dynamics.Effective methods for such manipulation,however,remain elusive owing to the wide spectrum and irreversible destructive nature of intense shock waves.This work proposes a novel approach for actively controlling intense shock waves in solids,inspired by the principles of optical and explosive lenses.Specifically,by designing a shock wave convex lens composed of a low-shock-impedance material embedded in a high-shock-impedance matrix,we prove the feasibility of transforming a planar shock into a spherically converging shock.This is based on oblique shock theory,according to which shock waves pass through an oblique interface and then undergo deflection.Both experimental and simulation results demonstrate that,as expected,the obtained local spherical shock wave has a wavefront that is nearly perfectly spherical and uniform in pressure.Thus,this work proves the possibility of generating spherical shock waves using plate-impact experiments and highlights the potential of further exploration of the manipulation of shock waves in solids.It also contributes an innovative perspective for both armor penetration technologies and shock wave mitigation strategies.

Based on dimensional analysis theory, a theoretical analysis of the shock wave overpressure distribution in free air fields is conducted. Utilizing the derived dimensionless function relationships, the hydrocode AUTODYN is employed to investigate the effects of charge structure parameters and explosive combinations on the internal overdriven detonation phenomena and the distribution of shock wave loads. It is found that the overdriven detonation phenomenon in the inner layer of composite charges increases the strength of the axial detonation wave,thereby enhancing the intensity of the primary end wave formed upon refraction into the air, which affects the distribution characteristics of the shock wave overpressure. Research has shown that increasing the thickness ratio and detonation velocity ratio of composite charges is beneficial for exacerbating the phenomenon of overdriven detonation, improving the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure. This gain effect gradually weakens with the propagation of shock waves. When overdriven detonation occurs inside the composite charge, the detonation pressure first increases and then decreases. The Mach reflection pressure of the composite charge with a larger aspect ratio is attenuated to a greater extent. In addition, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the shock wave energy gradually flows from the axial direction to the radial direction. Therefore, as the aspect ratio of the composite charge increases, the primary end wave intensity and axial overpressure gradually decrease.

文摘This paper focuses on the application of the adaptive mesh method in the study of underwater shock waves near the water surface.By integrating theoretical analysis with a five-equation model under axisymmetric coordinates,we developed an optimized computational framework for multi-material fluid simulations.The moving mesh method(r-method)is used to accurately capture complex underwater shock wave systems.Multiple numerical experiments are conducted,including deep-water explosions,near-surface explosions for both spherical charge and cylindrical charge,and regular–irregular reflection interface calculations.The results show that compared to the fixed mesh method,the adaptive mesh method provides results closer to the theoretical values and achieves local high-resolution computation of multi-material fluids.By adjusting the adaptive function,different mesh refinement effects can be obtained.This method also has certain advantages in calculating the regular–irregular reflection interface in underwater explosions.This study establishes a validated computational framework for underwater explosion research,enhancing the predictive accuracy for underwater shock wave propagation in engineering assessments and providing new insights into the fundamental physics of multi-material explosion phenomena.

文摘This study focuses on High-Amplitude Wall Heat Flux events(HAWHFs) occurring during the interaction between a supersonic flat-plate Turbulent Boundary Layer(TBL) at a Mach number of2.25 and an oblique shock wave impinging at 33.2.. A database from a validated direct numerical simulation is analyzed using conditional averaging and a two-dimensional clustering methodology to elucidate the statistical characteristics of both positive and negative HAWHFs within the interaction region. The results reveal that the interaction considerably affects the temporal attributes of the HAWHFs, leading to an extended lifespan for the positive HAWHFs and an increased interval between the occurrences of negative HAWHFs. The structural characteristics of the identified HAWHFs are delineated based on the evolution of population density, aspect ratio, and both absolute and relative distances throughout the interaction. The joint probability density functions of the relative positioning of two adjacent structures indicate that, away from the reattachment point, the positive HAWHFs align in the spanwise direction, displaying similarities with the negative HAWHFs. Moreover, a conditional analysis of flow structures associated with HAWHFs is conducted. This analysis of the conditionally averaged three-dimensional fields reveals that the interaction fosters larger-scale organizational patterns in the downstream region. However, the formation of positive and negative HAWHFs remains largely unaffected by the interaction, with the former predominantly linked to a two-layer temperature structure and the latter primarily associated with a pair of oblique vortices.

文摘A Discrete Boltzmann Method(DBM)with a Maxwell-type boundary condition is constructed to investigate the influence of rarefaction on laminar Shock Wave/Boundary Layer Interaction(SWBLI).Due to the complexity of compressible flow,a Knudsen number vector Kn,whose components include the local Knudsen numbers such as Kn_(ρ)and Kn_(U),is introduced to characterize the local structures,where Kn_(ρ)and Kn_(U)are Knudsen numbers defined in terms of the density and velocity interfaces,respectively.Since first focusing on the steady state of SWBLI,the DBM considers up to the second-order Kn_(ρ)(rarefaction/non-equilibrium)effects.The model is validated using Mach number 2 SWBLI and the necessity of using DBM with sufficient physical accuracy is confirmed by the shock collision problem.Key findings include the following:the leading-edge shock wave increases the local density Knudsen number Kn_(ρ)and eventually leads to the failure of linear constitutive relations in the Navier-Stokes(N-S)model and surely also in the lower-order DBM;the non-equilibrium effect differences in regions behind the leading-edge shock wave are primarily correlated with Kn_(ρ),while in the separation region are primarily correlated with Kn_(U);the non-equilibrium quantities D_(2)and D_(4,2),as well as the viscous entropy production rate S_(NOMF)can be used to identify the separation zone.The findings clarify various effects and main mechanisms in different regions associated with SWBLI,which are concealed in N-S model.
文摘[Objectives]To quantify the efficacy of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy(ESWT)for upper limb spasticity in stroke patients using Modified Ashworth Scale(MAS)across three timeframes:immediate,short-term(24 h-4 wks),and long-term(>4 wks).[Methods]Six databases(PubMed,EMBASE,CENTRAL,CINAHL,Scopus,Web of Science)until May 2025,were systematically searched,identifying 11 RCTs(n=505)meeting inclusion criteria(adults≥18 yrs old with stroke-related spasticity[MAS≥1]).Risk of bias was rigorously assessed using Cochrane criteria,revealing uniformly low risk across all domains.Random-effects meta-analyses(REML model)calculated Hedges'g with 95%CI for MAS outcomes,with subgroup analyses for joint-specific effects.[Results]ESWT demonstrated non-significant immediate MAS reduction(g=-0.69,p=0.07;=93.95%),but statistically significant short-term(g=-0.58,p=0.02;I^(2)=89.64%)and long-term effects(g=-0.52,p=0.02;I^(2)=78.72%).Effects were driven by composite MAS scores(short-term g=-0.63;long-term g=-0.56,both p<0.05)rather than isolated joints(elbow/finger/wrist all non-significant).Substantial heterogeneity persisted across analyses,particularly in joint-specific subgroups(I^(2)>90%).[Conclusions]ESWT provides statistically significant,clinically relevant reductions in global upper limb spasticity with durable efficacy beyond four weeks,supporting its use as a non-invasive adjunct therapy despite substantial heterogeneity warranting protocol standardization.

文摘Cowl-induced incident Shock Wave/Boundary Layer Interactions (SWBLI) under the influence of gradual expansion waves are frequently observed in supersonic inlets. However, the analysis and prediction of interaction lengths have not been sufficiently investigated. First, this study presents a theoretical scaling analysis and validates it through wind tunnel experiments. It conducts detailed control volume analysis of mass conservation, considering the differences between inviscid and viscous cases. Then, three models for analysing interaction length under gradual expansion waves are derived. Related experiments using schlieren photography are conducted to validate the models in a Mach 2.73 flow. The interaction scales are captured at various relative distances between the shock impingement location and the expansion regions with wedge angles ranging from 12° to 15° and expansion angles of 9°, 12°, and 15°. Three trend lines are plotted based on different expansion angles to depict the relationship between normalised interaction length and normalised interaction strength metric. In addition, the relationship between the coefficients of the trend line and the expansion angles is introduced to predict the interaction length influenced by gradual expansion waves. Finally, the estimation of normalised interaction length is derived for various coefficients within a unified form.

文摘Prototype experiments were carried out on the explosion-proof performance of the RC blast wall.The mass of TNT detonated in the experiments is 5 kg and 20 kg respectively.The shock wave overpressure was tested in different regions.The above experiments were numerically simulated,and the simulated shock wave overpressure waveforms were compared with that tested and given by CONWEP program.The results show that the numerically simulated waveform is slightly different from the test waveform,but similar to CONWEP waveform.Through dimensional analysis and numerical simulation under different working conditions,the equation for the attenuation rate of the diffraction overpressure behind the blast wall was obtained.According to the corresponding standards,the degree of casualties and the damage degree of the brick concrete building at a certain distance behind the wall can be determined when parameters are set.The above results can provide a reference for the design and construction of the reinforced concrete blast wall.

文摘In recent years,explosion shock wave has been considered as a signature injury of the current military conflicts.Although strong shock wave is lethal to the human body,weak shock wave can cause many more lasting consequences.To investigate the protection ability and characteristics of flexible materials and structures under weak shock wave loading,the blast wave produced by TNT explosive is loaded on the polyurethane foam with the density of 200.0 kg/m3(F-200)and 400.0 kg/m3(F-400),polyurea with the density of 1100.0 kg/m^(3)(P-1100)and structures composed of the two materials,which are intended for individual protection.Experimental results indicate that the shock wave is attenuated to weak pressure disturbance after interacting with the flexible materials which are not damaged.The shock wave protective capability of single-layer materials is dependent on their thickness,density and microscopic characteristics.The overpressure,maximum pressure rise rate and impulse of transmitted wave decrease exponentially with increase in sample thickness.For the same thickness,F-400 provides better protective capability than F-200 while P-1100 shows the best protective capability among the three materials.In this study,as the materials are not destroyed,F-200 with a thickness more than10.0 mm,F-400 with a thickness more than 4.0 mm,and P-1100 with a thickness more than 1.0 mm can attenuate the overpressure amplitude more than 90.0%.Further,multi-layer flexible composites are designed.Different layer layouts of designed structures and layer thickness of the single-layer materials can affect the protective performance.Within the research range,the structure in which polyurea is placed on the impact side shows the optimal shock wave protective performance,and the thicknesses of polyurea and polyurethane foam are 1.0 mm and 4.0 mm respectively.The overpressure attenuation rate reached maximum value of 93.3%and impulse attenuation capacity of this structure are better than those of single-layer polyurea and polyurethane foam with higher areal density.

文摘Porous materials are widely used in the field of protection because of their excellent energy absorption characteristics.In this work,a series of polyurethane microscopic models are established and the effect of porosity on the shock waves is studied with classical molecular dynamics simulations.Firstly,shock Hugoniot relations for different porosities are obtained,which compare well with the experimental data.The pores collapse and form local stress wave,which results in the complex multi-wave structure of the shock wave.The microstructure analysis shows that the local stress increases and the local velocity decreases gradually during the process of pore collapse to complete compaction.Finally,it leads to stress relaxation and velocity homogenization.The shock stress peaks can be fitted with two exponential functions,and the amplitude of attenuation coefficient decreases with the increase of density.Besides,the pore collapse under shock or non-shock are discussed by the entropy increase rate of the system.The energy is dissipated mainly through the multiple interactions of the waves under shock.The energy is dissipated mainly by the friction between atoms under non-shock.
文摘The gun-track launch system is a new special launch device that connects the track outside the muzzle.Because it is constrained by the track,the characteristics of development of the muzzle jet differ from those of the traditional muzzle jet.Specifically,it changes from freely developing to doing so in a constrained manner,where this results in an asymmetric direction of flow as well as spatio-temporal coupling-induced interference between various shock waves and the formation of vortices.In this background,the authors of this article formulate and consider the development and characteristics of evolution of the muzzle jet as it impacts a constrained moving body.We designed simulations to test the gun-track launch system,and established a numerical model based on the dynamic grid method to explore the development and characteristics of propagation of disturbances when the muzzle jet impacted a constrained moving body.We also considered models without a constrained track for the sake of comparison.The results showed that the muzzle jet assumed a circumferential asymmetric shape,and tended to develop in the area above the muzzle.Because the test platform was close to the ground,the muzzle jet was subjected to reflections from it that enhanced the development and evolution of various forms of shock waves and vortices in the muzzle jet to exacerbate its rate of distortion and asymmetric characteristics.This in turn led to significant differences in the changes in pressure at symmetric points that would otherwise have been identical.The results of a comparative analysis showed that the constrained track could hinder the influence of reflections from the ground on the muzzle jet to some extent,and could reduce the velocity of the shock waves inducing the motion of the muzzle as well as the Mach number of the moving body.The work here provides a theoretical basis and the requisite technical support for applications of the gun-track launch system.It also sheds light on the technical bottlenecks that need to be considered to recover high-value warheads.

文摘Recent evidence suggests that low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy(Li-ESWT)is a promising treatment for chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome(CP/CPPS);however,its safety in pelvic organs,particularly prostate tissues and cells,remains unclear.The current study evaluates the risks of prostate cell damage or oncogenesis following the administration of LiESWT for prostatitis.To this end,a robust in vitro model(Cell Counting Kit-8[CCK-8]assay,clone formation assay,cell scratch assay,lactate dehydrogenase[LDH]release assay,flow cytometry,and immunoblotting assay)was designed to examine the effects of Li-ESWT on cell proliferation,clonogenicity,migration,membrane integrity,and DNA damage.Exome sequencing of Li-ESWTtreated cells was performed to determine the risk of carcinogenesis.Furthermore,an in vivo rat model(n=20)was employed to assess the effects of Li-ESWT on cancer biomarkers(carcinoembryonic antigen[CEA],Ki67,proliferating cell nuclear antigen[PCNA],and gamma-H2A histone family member X,phosphorylation of the H2AX Ser-139[γ-H2AX])in prostate tissue.Based on our findings,Li-ESWT promotes cellular growth and motility without inducing significant cell membrane or DNA damage or alterations.Genetic analyses did not demonstrate an increase in mutations,and no damage to prostate tissue or upregulation of cancer biomarkers was detected in vivo.This comprehensive in vitro and in vivo assessment confirms the safety of Li-ESWT in managing prostate disorders.

文摘Shock wave focusing is an effective way to create a hot spot or a high-pressure and hightemperature region at a certain place,showing its unique usage in detonation initiation,which is beneficial for the development of detonation-based engines.The flame propagation behavior after the autoignition induced by shock wave focusing is crucial to the formation and self-sustaining of the detonation wave.In this study,wedge reflectors with two different angles(60°and 90°)and a planar reflector are employed,and the Mach number of incident shock waves ranging from 2.0 to 2.8 is utilized to trigger different flame propagation modes.Dynamic pressure transducers and the high-speed schlieren imaging system are both employed to investigate the shock-shock collision and ignition procedure.The results reveal a total of four flame propagation modes:deflagration,DDT(Deflagration-to-Detonation Transition),unsteady detonation,and direct detonation.The detonation wave formed in the DDT and unsteady detonation mode is only approximately 75%-85%of the Chapman-Jouguet(C-J)speed;meanwhile,the directly induced detonation wave speed is close to the C-J speed.Transverse waves,which are strong evidence for the existence of detonation waves,are discovered in experiments.The usage of wedge reflectors significantly reduces the initial pressure difference ratio needed for direct detonation ignition.We also provide a practical method for differentiating between detonation and deflagration modes,which involves contrasting the speed of the reflected shock wave with the speed of the theoretically nonreactive reflected shock wave.These findings should serve as a reference for the detonation initiation technique in advanced detonation propulsion engines.

文摘With the continuous increase of mining in depth,the gas extraction faces the challenges of low permeability,great ground stress,high temperature and large gas pressure in coal seam.The controllable shock wave(CSW),as a new method for enhancing permeability of coal seam to improve gas extraction,features in the advantages of high efficiency,eco-friendly,and low cost.In order to better utilize the CSW into gas extraction in coal mine,the mechanism and feasibility of CSW enhanced extraction need to be studied.In this paper,the basic principles,the experimental tests,the mathematical models,and the on-site tests of CSW fracturing coal seams are reviewed,thereby its future research directions are provided.Based on the different media between electrodes,the CSW can be divided into three categories:hydraulic effect,wire explosion and excitation of energetic materials by detonating wire.During the process of propagation and attenuation of the high-energy shock wave in coal,the shock wave and bubble pulsation work together to produce an enhanced permeability effect on the coal seam.The stronger the strength of the CSW is,the more cracks created in the coal is,and the greater the length,width and area of the cracks being.The repeated shock on the coal seam is conducive to the formation of complex network fracture system as well as the reduction of coal seam strength,but excessive shock frequency will also damage the coal structure,resulting in the limited effect of the enhanced gas extraction.Under the influence of ground stress,the crack propagation in coal seam will be restrained.The difference of horizontal principal stress has a significant impact on the shape,propagation direction and connectivity of the CSW induced cracks.The permeability enhancement effect of CSW is affected by the breakage degree of coal seam.The shock wave is absorbed by the broken coal,which may hinder the propagation of CSW,resulting in a poor effect of permeability enhancement.When arranging two adjacent boreholes for CSW permeability enhancement test,the spacing of boreholes should not be too close,which may lead to negative pressure mutual pulling in the early stage of drainage.At present,the accurate method for effectively predicting the CSW permeability enhanced range should be further investigated.

文摘This study investigates high-amplitude Extreme Wall Pressure fluctuation Events(EWPEs)in Shock wave/Turbulent Boundary Layer Interactions(STBLIs)through the conditional sampling of direct numerical simulation databases.The aim is to evaluate the effect of STBLIs and their strength on the statistical properties and associated turbulent structures of EWPEs using the conditional-averaging and clustering method.The temporal statistical results show that the occurrence probability and contribution ratio of EWPEs decrease downstream of strong STBLI,but their duration and interval time increase.Regarding two-dimensional wall pressure structures,the large population of small-scale structures becomes more elongated,but strong interactions induce a greater number of large-scale structures.The pairing of wall pressure events with a higher occurrence probability is verified by the joint probability density functions.Conditional analysis reveals that,as the interaction strength increases,the ejection motion associated with positive events occurs farther downstream and the spanwise vortex core locating above negative events is lifted up along the wall-normal direction.Moreover,analysis associates the paired wall pressure events with the sweep,ejection,and swirl motions in STBLIs,where hairpin eddies play an important role in the formation of positive-negative paired wall pressure structures.

文摘Shock wave/boundary layer interaction in a 24°turning angle of the compression ramp at Mach number 2.9 controlled by steady microjet is investigated using direct numerical simulation.Three different jet spacings which are termed as sparse,moderate and dense are considered,and the induced vortex system and shock structures are compared.A moderate jet spacing configuration is found to generate counter-rotating vortex pairs that transport high-momentum fluid towards the vicinity of wall and strengthen the boundary layer to resist separation,reducing the separation region.The dense jet spacing configuration creates a larger momentum deficit region,reducing the friction downstream of the corner.Analysis of pressure and pressure gradient reveals that dense jet spacing configuration reduces the intensity of separation shock.The impact of varying jet spacings on the turbulent kinetic energy transport mechanism is also investigated by decomposing the budget terms in the transport equation.Furthermore,the spectral characteristics of the separation region are studied using power spectral density and dynamic mode decomposition methods,revealing that moderate jet spacing configuration suppresses low-frequency fluctuations in the separation region.
文摘BACKGROUND Extracorporeal shock wave therapy(ESWT)is increasingly being recognized as an advantageous alternative for treating non-union due to its efficacy and minimal associated complications.Non-union following Bernese periacetabular osteotomy(PAO)is particularly challenging,with a reported 55%delayed union and 8%non-union.Herein,we highlight a unique case of ischial non-union post-PAO treated successfully with a structured ESWT regimen.CASE SUMMARY A 50-year-old patient,diagnosed with left ischial non-union following the PAO,underwent six cycles of ESWT treatment across ten months.Each cycle,spaced four weeks apart,consisted of five consecutive ESWT sessions without anesthesia.Regular X-ray follow-ups showed progressive disappearance of the fracture line and fracture union.The patient ultimately achieved a satisfactory asymptomatic recovery and bone union.CONCLUSION The results from this case suggest that this ESWT regimen can be a promising non-invasive treatment strategy for non-union following PAO.
