Comparison between the present simulation and the experiment of Haas and Sturtevant [5] of the velocities of various flow features for the shock-bubble interaction problem. These include, along with the time interval in the simulation over which they were averaged, the velocities of the incident shock, u_s [−60, 0], refracted shock, u_r [0, 52], transmitted shock, u_t [52, 240], upstream interface, u_ui [10, 52], downstream interface, u_di [140, 240], and jet, u_j [140, 240]. Note that the velocities and time intervals are given in m/s and μs, respectively, and the corresponding flow features are identified in Fig. 6. All measurements are taken along the x-axis.
