Attenuating Shock Waves by Barrier Having Different Orientations: A Numerical Investigation
Abstract
Propagation of shock waves through a set of oblique plate barriers is studied numerically. It is found that the studied barrier-set is very effective in attenuating transmitted shock waves. A barrier inclination of 30° seems to be the most effective configuration. All transmitted shock waves through the proposed barrier-set are reduced to mild compression wave upon exiting the sequence of inclined barrier plates
