Abstract
The load and force acting on an infinite circular cylinder diffracting a moderately strong shock wave (pressure ratio across the front ∼1.01–5) are found. The process is simulated mathematically by means of a finite-difference scheme of second order of accuracy. For γ = 1.4, systematic calculations have been made in a narrow range of shock strengths, which has made it possible to obtain detailed characteristics of not only the transient stage of the process but also the steady state.
