Nonlinear dynamics

an expanding modulated train of nonlinear oscillations that resolves a steep front in a dispersive medium instead of a viscous shock.

In nonlinear dynamics, dispersive shock wave refers to an expanding modulated train of nonlinear oscillations that resolves a steep front in a dispersive medium instead of a viscous shock. This meaning comes from El (2016) in Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena.[1]
