Book Chapter Description

From 1961 to 1972, they were the high light of the Apollo project. Researchers, who were the same age as the author and interested in high-speed gas dynamics, were aware of the importance of the shock wave research. Shock tubes reproduced atmospheric reentry conditions of the Apollo commander modules and shock tunnels simulated the reentry flights. In the late 1960s, Japanese researchers became interested in space technology and science, which initiated the establishment of the Japan Society for Shock Tube Research. Japan was a newcomer to the international shock tube research community.
