Extinction of multiple shocks in the modular Burgers’ equation

Shocks in the Burgers Equation and the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process

Decay Mode Solutions to (2 + 1)-Dimensional Burgers Equation, Cylindrical Burgers Equation and Spherical Burgers Equation

Three (2 + 1)-dimensional equations—Burgers equation, cylindrical Burgers equation and spherical Burgers equation, have been reduced to the classical Burgers equation by different transformation of variables respectively. The decay mode solutions of the Burgers equation have been obtained by using the extended G G ′       -expansion method, substituting the solutions obtained into the cor...

Instantons in Burgers Equation

The instanton solution for the forced Burgers equation is found. This solution describes the exponential tail of the probability distribution function of velocity differences in the region where shock waves are absent. The results agree with the one found recently by Polyakov, who used the operator product conjecture. If this conjecture is true, then our WKB asymptotics of the Wyld functional i...

Traveling Waves and Shocks in a Viscoelastic Generalization of Burgers' Equation

We consider traveling wave phenomena for a viscoelastic generalization of Burgers’ equation. For asymptotically constant velocity profiles we find three classes of solutions corresponding to smooth traveling waves, piecewise smooth waves, and piecewise constant (shock) solutions. Each solution type is possible for a given pair of asymptotic limits, and we characterize the dynamics in terms of t...

Instanton theory of Burgers shocks and intermittency.

A Lagrangian approach to Burgers turbulence is carried out along the lines of the field theoretical Martin-Siggia-Rose formalism of stochastic hydrodynamics. We derive, from an analysis based on the hypothesis of unbroken Galilean invariance, the asymptotic form of the probability distribution function of negative velocity differences. The origin of Burgers intermittency is found to rely on the...
