3.18 Moving Normal Shock Waves

Moving normal shock waves refer to normal shock waves in linear motion axis symmetric to the flow direction. Two sets of functions are available, one computes the thermodynamic properties of moving normal shock waves as described and the other set computes the mechanical/dynamic properties of such shock waves. These are separated as the functions computing the mechanical properties will require additional arguments in comparison to the thermodynamic property functions.
