Preface
The University of Manchester hosted the 28th International Symposium on Shock Waves between 17 and 22 July 2011. The University of Manchester was created by bringing together The Victoria University of Manchester (VUM) and UMIST, two of Britain's most distinguished universities, to create a powerful new force in British Higher Education.

Among the twenty-six Nobel Prize winners associated with the University are Rutherford, W.L. Bragg, A.V. Hill, P.M.S. Blackett, L. Pa
