A model of dynamic shock interaction predicts that pulsed energy addition upstream of a
bow shock can be used to weaken the time-averaged shock strength. To explore these …

A small-scale wind tunnel experiment has been performed to investigate the dynamics of the
offbody energy addition upstream of an oblique shock wave generated by a wedge model …

Aerodynamic drag reduction effects of an on‐axis electric‐arc airspike have been
investigated in Mach 10 flow using RPI's 24‐inch Hypersonic Shock Tunnel (HST). The long …

Experimental results on the visualization of the time evolution of the laser‐plasma induced
breakdown produced in low density hypersonic flow using the Schlieren technique are …

Electric‐arc airspike experiments were performed with a 1.25‐inch diameter blunt body in
the vacuum‐driven Mach 3 wind tunnel at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Schlieren …

In current paper, a numerical study by ANSYS FLUENT software has been carried out on the
opposing jet in hyper/supersonic flow. In incoming Mach number 6, flow fields around two …

Recently, Nhypersonic research activities around the universe have been in major focus
because of the milestone developments in hypersonic reentry vehicles, orbital transfer …

The effect of an air‐spike in hypersonic flow is considered in the paper. The similarity laws of
shape dependence and shock wave parameters, as a function of the strength of the heat …

Flow visualization of laser energy addition upstream blunt bodies in hypersonic flow was
achieved by means of open shutter photography and high‐speed cameras techniques. The …
