analysis of non-laminar flows in coarse alluvial beds has a wide range of applications in various civil engineering, oil and gas, and geology problems. darcy equation is not valid to analyze transient and turbulent flows, so non-linear equations should be applied. non-linear equations are classified into power and binomial equations. binomial equation is more accurate in a wide range of velocit...

The behaviour of converging spherical shock waves is considered using Whitham’s theory of geometrical shock dynamics. An analysis of converging shocks whose initial shape takes the form of regular polyhedra is presented. The analysis of this problem is motivated by the earlier work on converging cylindrical shocks discussed in Schwendeman & Whitham (1987). In that paper, exact solutions were re...
