Valuable results have been achieved over a wide variety of CFD fields by the Italian community during the last decades. Here attention is focused on a specific field: the numerical treatment of discontinuities, especially shock waves, in hyperbolic gasdynamic problems. Italian contributions to the explicit fitting and to the numerical capturing of discontinuities are reviewed in the following.
