• oblique shock wave — A shock wave that forms on a sharp pointed object moving through the air at a speed greater than the speed of sound. Air passing through an oblique shock wave is slowed down but if the wave angle is less than about 70°, it still will be… …   Aviation dictionary

• Oblique shock — A small scale X 15 placed in a NASA supersonic wind tunnel produces an oblique shock wave at the nose of the model (along with other shocks). An oblique shock wave, unlike a normal shock, is inclined with respect to the incident upstream flow… …   Wikipedia
