Unlike the shock reflection phenomena in steady flows (Chap. 2) and in pseudosteady flows (Chap. 3), where the flow fields basically depend on two independent variables, namely x and y in the former and x/t and y/t in the latter, here the flow field depends on three parameters x, y, and t. For this reason, the analytical consideration of the reflection phenomenon in unsteady flows is more difficult.
