Abstract

To study the position and strength of a shock discontinuity as it propagates into a medium at rest, an infinite system of compatibility conditions can be derived. Each of these involves derivatives of a single flow variable and is in the form of a transport equation along shock rays. For two-dimensional shock propagation, the first two compatibility conditions are derived in detail.
