To develop the next generation of shock mitigation solutions for fast boats operating in waves it is important to understand the forces that the hull is experiencing as it passes through or over ...

Like waves off a boat, shock waves spread away from a T-38 aircraft flying at Mach 1.1, or just over the speed of sound. The photograph was taken in 1993 using a specialized camera that captures ...

The clash of two galaxy clusters in Abell 2146 is teaching astronomers about the kinds of "collisionless" shock waves that occur in our own solar system.

Key takeaways: Shock waves have been used in medicine for a long time. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy may improve lens elasticity, lens clarity and lens volume.

The formation of shock waves creates a trailing wake pattern that extends beyond the intended focal point, reducing the spatial precision and clarity of the tactile sensations.

Studying these elusive shock waves could give scientists a better look at the mysterious magnetic fields that permeate the cosmic web.
