Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We proposed a method to analyze non-linear waves in polyatomic gases on the basis of extended thermodynamics (ET) and obtained the following results: (1) The structure of strong shock waves in a rarefied polyatomic gas was explained quantitatively. (2) Properties of the time evolution of non-linear waves were clarified numerically. (3) Counter examples on the conjecture of the sub-shock formation were successfully constructed. (4) A similarity solution of spherical shock waves was derived on the basis of the ET theory. (5) An extended thermodynamics theory for mixtures of polyatomic gases was developed.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究で提案した、「拡張された熱力学」(ET)理論に基づく手法により、従来の理論では解析できなかった、強い非平衡状態にある多原子分子気体中の非線型波動の性質を説明できるようになった。衝撃波が機体周りで発生する航空宇宙工学分野での設計などに新たな指針を与えることができる。 直接の測定が難しい、気体の体積粘性率などの精確な値を求める方法にもつながるため、物性物理・材料工学など他分野のさらなる発展の基礎にもなると期待される。
