The reflection of asymmetric shock waves in steady flows is studied both theoretically and experimentally. While the analytical model was two-dimensional, three-dimensional edge effects influenced the experiments. In addition to regular and Mach reflection wave configurations, an inverse-Mach reflection wave configuration, which has been observed so far only in unsteady flows (e.g. shock wave reflection over concave surfaces or over double wedges) has been recorded. A hysteresis phenomenon similar to the one that exists in the reflection of symmetric shock waves has been found to also exist in the reflection of asymmetric shock waves. The domains and transition boundaries of the various types of overall reflection wave configurations are analytically predicted.

The reflection of shock waves over straight reflecting surfaces in steady flows was investigated experimentally using the supersonic wind tunnel of Laboratoire d'Aerothermique du CNRS, Meudon, France. The results for a flow Mach number M0 = 4.96 contradict the state of the art regarding the regular [harr ] Mach reflection transition in steady flows. Not only was a hysteresis found to exist in this transition, but, unlike previous reports, regular reflection configurations were found to be stable in the dual-solution domain in which theoretically both regular and Mach reflection are possible.

The theoretical study and experimental investigation of the reflection of asymmetric shock waves in steady flows reported by Li et al. (1999) are complemented by a numerical simulation. All the findings reported in both the theoretical study and the experimental investigation were also evident in the numerical simulation. In addition to weak regular reflection and Mach reflection wave configurations, strong regular reflection and inverse-Mach reflection wave configurations were recorded numerically. The hysteresis phenomenon, which was hypothesized in the course of the theoretical study and then verified in the experimental investigation, was also observed in the numerical simulation.
