A new technique for detecting shock waves in compressible flow solutions computed by means of shock-capturing solvers is proposed and discussed. This newly developed technique uses the Hough transform and a least squares fit to further post-process the data provided by a classical shock detection technique based on local criteria. This two-steps analysis significantly enhances the quality of the shock lines extracted from numerical solutions; moreover, it allows to correctly recognize the complex shock-wave patterns that arise when the flow solution is characterized by the presence of multiple interacting shocks.

Abstract
A new technique for detecting shock waves in compressible flow solutions computed by means of shock-capturing solvers is proposed and discussed. This newly developed technique uses the Hough transform and a least squares fit to further post-process the data provided by a classical shock detection technique based on local criteria. This two-steps analysis significantly enhances the quality of the shock lines extracted from numerical solutions; moreover, it allows to correctly recognize the complex shock-wave patterns that arise when the flow solution is characterized by the presence of multiple interacting shocks.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
