moreShock/turbulent boundary-layer interactions produce generally unsteadiness of the shock system. This phenomenon is reviewed and analyzed, by evaluating the results of various experiments; in particular results in the case of a shock reflection are presented. It appears that the frequency of the fluctuations produced by the shock motion are much lower than the characteristic frequencies of turbulence in the incoming
