SUMMARY:On Stability of Steady Transonic Shocks in Supersonic Flow around 
 a Wedge - Fang\, B (Shanghai Jiao Tong University)

DESCRIPTION:In this talk we are concerned with the stability of steady tra
 nsonic shocks in supersonic flow around a wedge. When a uniform supersonic
  flow comes against a straight wedge with small vertex angle\, a shock-fro
 nt attached to the wedge appears. It is indicated in the book "Supersonic 
 Flow and Shock Waves" by Courant and Friedrichs that there are two admissi
 ble shock solutions satisfying both Rankine-Hugoniot conditions and the en
 tropy condition. The weaker shock solution may be transonic\, while the st
 ronger one must be transonic. In this talk\, we shall present stability re
 sults for 2-D and M-D flows. \n\nThis talk is based on the joint works wit
 h Prof. G.-Q. Chen\, and Prof. S.X. Chen.\n
