The reflection of a finite amplitude wave from a curvilinear unsteady shock wave

The reflection of a wave of finite amplitude from a curvilinear unsteady shock wave has been analyzed. A formula connecting reflected wave parameters with that of the incident wave, curvature and shock wave intensity has been obtained in closed form.
