The flare-associated shock waves which were detected by the IPS (interplanetary scintillation) observations in 1972-1974 are examined. The shock wave generated by the solar flare on Aug. 2/20h, 1972 was accompanied by turbulent piston motion. The motion of this piston was strongly decelerated in the region west of the flare normal. Because of the strong deceleration, this shock wave was degenerated into the density fluctuations which were convected by the ambient solar wind of 350 km/sec at 1.4 AU from the sun. The shock wave produced by the solar flare on Aug. 7/15h, 1972 was also accompanied by the turbulent piston. There was no significant deceleration of the piston. Another piston-driven shock wave was observed in early July 1974.
