SHOCK WAVE FALLING ON A FLAT BARRIER THAT CONTAINS MICRO SHELLS.
The shock wave falls on the barrier that contains periodic system of shells and enters the shells partially reflecting from the surface of barrier. Forming of reflected shock wave and its propagation in the shell is studied by solving the Bolzmann kinetic equation by a finite-difference method. Main attention is paid to the processes in the micro shell. Two molecular models are considered: that of hard spheres and with Lennard-Johnes potential of Argon. Parallel computations are realized at a cluster by using MPI technology. Graphics of the shock wave attenuation and detailed fields of flow parameters are reported.
