  2. Hail cannon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hail_cannon

    A hail cannon is a shock wave generator claimed to disrupt the formation of hailstones in the atmosphere. These devices frequently engender conflict between farmers and neighbors when used, [ 1 ] because they are loudly and repeatedly fired every 1 to 10 seconds while a storm is approaching and until it has passed through the area, yet there is ...

  3. Shockwave (Six Flags Great America) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shockwave_(Six_Flags_Great...

    Shockwave (occasionally stylized as ShockWave or Shock Wave) was a roller coaster manufactured by Arrow Dynamics at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, Illinois.Standing 170 feet (52 m) tall and reaching speeds of 65 miles per hour (105 km/h), it opened in 1988 as the world's tallest and fastest looping roller coaster with a record-breaking seven inversions: three vertical loops, a boomerang ...

  4. Table of explosive detonation velocities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_explosive...

    Detonation velocity is the speed with which the detonation shock wave travels through the explosive. It is a key, directly measurable indicator of explosive performance, but depends on density which must always be specified, and may be too low if the test charge diameter is not large enough.

  5. Shock wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_wave

    In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance that moves faster than the local speed of sound in the medium. Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy and can propagate through a medium, but is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous, change in pressure , temperature , and ...

  6. Shock (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_(mechanics)

    In mechanics and physics, shock is a sudden acceleration caused, for example, by impact, drop, kick, earthquake, or explosion.Shock is a transient physical excitation. Shock describes matter subject to extreme rates of force with respect to time. Shock i

  7. Shock tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_tube

    The size and method of producing the shock wave determine the peak and duration of the pressure wave it produces. Thus, shock tubes can be used as a tool used to both create and direct blast waves at a sensor or an object in order to imitate actual explosions and the damage that they cause on a smaller scale, provided that such explosions do ...

  8. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracorporeal_shockwave...

    Two 2017 reviews had similar findings, with moderate level evidence at best. [7] [8] Extracorporeal shockwave therapy is used as a second line measure to treat tennis elbow, [9] [10] [11] shoulder rotator cuff pain, [12] [13] Achilles tendinitis, [14] [15] plantar fasciitis, [16] [17] and greater trochanteric pain syndrome. [18]

  9. Lithotripsy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithotripsy

    Lithotripsy replaced using lithotrites as the most common treatment beginning in the mid 1980s. In extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), external shockwaves are focused at the stone to pulverize it. [6] Ureteroscopic methods use a rigid or flexible scope to reach the stone and direct mechanical or light energy at it. Endoscopy can use ...
