    [For part II, see the foregoing entry.] We study two special difficulties associated with computing steady supersonic flow where strong shocks are present. The first difficulty involves the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem and arises when the principle of domain of influence for the governing hyperbolic Euler equations is violated during marching. The second difficulty occurs when the shock is extremely strong so that the numerical errors due to Godunov averaging of flow within a cell containing the shock cause the Riemann problem to have no solution.
