Sedov explosion problem The Sedov explosion problem (Sedov 1959) involves the self-similar evolution of a cylindrical or spherical blast wave from a delta-function initial pressure perturbation in an otherwise homogeneous medium. Physics Hydrodynamics. Gamma-law equation of state. Geometries 1D spherical; 1/2/3D Cartesian. Parameters p_ambient = 1E-5; rho_ambient = 1; exp_energy = 1; gamma = 1.4 Results Grid Date Machine Num PE Plots Log 2002 Cart 6/6/01 denali 1 image profiles time series log 2002 Cart 6/6/01 denali 2 profiles time series log 2002 Cart 6/6/01 denali 8 profiles time series log 2002 Cart 6/6/01 denali 32 profiles time series log 643 Cart 6/7/01 thera 1 profiles time series log 1003 Cart 6/9/01 denali 32 profiles time series xy image xz image yz image log References Sedov, L.
