Numerical computations are presented which illustrate and test various effects pertinent to the amplification and generation of turbulence in shock wave-turbulent boundary layer interactions. Several fundamental physical mechanisms are identified. Idealizations of these processes are examined by nonlinear numerical calculations. The results enable some limits to be placed on the range of validity of existing linear theories. Additional results are given which are of a fundamentally nonlinear nature.
