  shockwaves - scientific
In 1966, the effect of shockwaves on humans was observed accidentally during experiments with high velocity projectiles when an employee touched the target plate at the very moment that the projectile hit the plate.(5) He described the feeling as something in his body comparable to an electric shock.
Haupt in 1988 was the first to use shockwave treatment of a nonunion fracture in a human, which was performed successfully in Bochum, Germany.(8) During the same time, Valchanou and Michailov described shockwave therapy for nonunions and delayed unions.(9) Their study, however, was a poorly controlled study reporting a success rate of 85%.
With respect to selecting patients for extracorporeal shockwave therapy, chronic plantar fasciitis is defined as pain in the area of the insertion of the plantar fascia on the inferomedial calcaneal tuberosity that has persisted for approximately four to six months or more.

 Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy as a Treatment for Lameness in Horses and Dogs
Extracorporeal shockwaves are high-pressure, low frequency sound waves, generated by a device outside the body and applied to the affected tissue in a site-specific manner.
When the shockwaves meet tissue interfaces of different densities, the energy contained in the shockwaves is released and interacts with the tissue.
It is thought that the shockwaves may interact with the innervation of the affected tissue, or alter the metabolism of cells within the tissue, which will in turn beneficially influence the tissue repair response to injury.

 deconsumption: Oil Shockwaves
Oil Shockwave was an ultra-high level brainstorming conference which met a couple months ago to discuss the question of just what exactly might happen if a substantial disruption occurred to the American oil infrastructure.
To ensure Oil Shockwave presented participants with a credible and realistic set of circumstances, the scenario included substantial input from former members of the oil industry, oil analysts and traders, former and current military officials, intelligence and national security experts, and other specialists.
So while the effects from Katrina will likely not be this serious, the Oil Shockwave report helps us to see the possible results we might be up against as these supply issues begin to work their way through the system.

 Shockwave source for acoustic shockwaves (US5233972)
An electromagnetic or electrodynamic shockwave source for generating acoustic shockwaves has a movable element which can be driven for generating the shockwaves, and a stationary element which is in electromagnetic interaction with the movable element to drive the movable element.
A membrane which contains an electrical coil arrangement, the coil being charged with high-voltage pulses to cause the generation of shockwaves, is provided as the movable element.
charging means for charging only said coil means with a pulse for causing rapid repulsion of said coil means from said stationary element to generate an acoustic shockwave in said propagation medium.

For example two bombs, placed on each side of the Earth, were to be detonated at the same time creating two extremely powerful shockwaves (powerful enough to go around the Earth a couple of times).
When these shockwaves hit each other, would they just keep on going, would they collide creating a third shockwave, or what..?
The separate shockwaves would mostly pass through each other, unaffected.

Another night scene is cut in with the group setting up camp in the hotel ruins, then cuts to the next day once more.
Used in mediocrity, some continuity errors concerning time difference are acceptable and easily overlooked, but the excess of inappropriate and ill-timed jumps from night to day seriously disrupt the continuity of Shockwaves and create even further confusion for the viewer.
In the case of Shockwaves, a horror film dealing with underwater Nazi Super Soldiers designed for the sole purpose of murder stalking helpless tourists on a remote island, the absence of gore is appalling, especially considering the budget for often unnecessary underwater photography that could have been spent on quality make-up FX.
