Nonlinear waves in conductive magnetizable fluid

The magnetosonic waves arise in conductive magnetizable incompressible fluid due to nonuniformity of the magnetization. The velocity of such waves depends on the fluid magnetic permeability. The one-dimentional simple waves are investigated and it is shown that a shock wave in magnetizable fluid is formed. This shock in contrast to Alfven´s one is characterized by constant width. There is a hyperbolic region in the case of steady flows of conductive magnetizable fluid. This implies the existence of simple waves in such fluid similar to that of Prandtl-Meyer in gas-dynamics.
