Abstract
Shock-droplet/particle interactions have garnered substantial interest in recent years, fueled by advancements in aerospace and defense technologies, including supersonic and hypersonic systems in highly humid conditions, as well as the ongoing space exploration efforts from global space centers as well as private space companies. Understanding the interactions between shockwaves and droplets that impact on solid surfaces is critical due to the potential to cause significant damage to materials and structures in high-speed flow environments. Studies like these have applications in areas ranging from aerospace engineering to blast mitigation systems, where these interactions play a pivotal role in designing the relevant systems.
