Velocity Shocks
Velocity shock has two components: intensity, usually measured in g's (1 standard g = 9.80665 m/s2), and duration, measured in milliseconds. A drop from table-top height onto a hard floor...
Well, what are you telling me? Is this source faulty? Or perhaps are there other measurement units used outside NASA and aerospace?
The shock waves under consideration here are fluid shock waves, so perhaps that is the source of the discrepancy. I provided only one source above, because of...

Suggest you google "[Search terms that lead to spammy websites redacted by the Mentors]" It's right there. I believe the question is valid and well-formed. Got an answer?
I need some help understanding shock waves, particularly the units of measure related to their pressure. Shock waves are frequently quantified as multiples of G, the gravitational constant. I need to understand how the G measurements related to the instantaneous pressure within the wave as...
