What are shock interaction regimes?

[jason_85]

I have been asked to determine the "shock regime" of a oblique shock / bow shock interaction based on the angle of the impinging shock and flow conditions. What does this mean?

My initial thoughts were that I was being asked to determine whether the shock was strong or weak, but since the conditions are hypersonic that's not really a very interesting question.

What is a "shock regime"?
