Abstract
A three-dimensional Molecular Dynamics simulation (MD) is implemented to grasp an
insightful understanding of shock wave propagation on a nanoscale. Primarily, we have
reviewed some of its potential uses in medical and biological areas. Mainly, we have
come across reviewing some experimental investigations on a (mm-cm) scale. Some of
the results show that as the shock wave’s strength decreases rapidly, so does its amplitude
and velocity. According to our simulation results the asymptotic variance of wave
amplitude and speed have been perfectly correlated. Furthermore, in correspondence to
some experimental results [1, 2], we have found that the pressure pulse-amplitude is proportional
to the power of the distance from the source (DPa zm). Correspondingly, the
displacement pulse-amplitude also shows similar characteristics (Dza zm).
