Qualitative Behavior of Conservation Laws with Reaction Term and Nonconvex Flux
نویسنده
چکیده
The aim of the paper is to study qualitative behavior of solutions to the equation du df(u) , . m + ~oT9(o)' where (x,t) £lx R+,u = u(x,t) € R. The main new feature with respect to previous works is that the flux function / may have finitely many inflection points, intervals in which it is afEne, and corner points. The function g is supposed to be zero at 0 and 1, and positive in between. We prove existence of heteroclinic travelling waves connecting the two constant states for opportune choice of speeds. Finally, we analyze the large-time behavior of the Riemann problem with values 0 and 1, showing convergence to one of the travelling waves. The speed of the limiting profile is explicitly characterized.

The comparison of two high-order semi-discrete central schemes for solving hyperbolic conservation laws
This work presents two high-order, semi-discrete, central-upwind schemes for computing approximate solutions of 1D systems of conservation laws. We propose a central weighted essentially non-oscillatory (CWENO) reconstruction, also we apply a fourth-order reconstruction proposed by Peer et al., and afterwards, we combine these reconstructions with a semi-discrete central-upwind numerical flux ...
متن کاملFractional Rate of Convergence for Viscous Approximation to Nonconvex Conservation Laws
This paper considers the viscous approximations to conservation laws with nonconvex flux function. It is shown that if the entropy solutions are piecewise smooth, then the rate of L1convergence is a fractional number in (0.5, 1]. This is in contrast to the corresponding result for the convex conservation laws. Numerical experiments indicate that the theoretical prediction for the convergence ra...
متن کاملRegularity of entropy solutions to nonconvex scalar conservation laws with monotone initial data
We prove that for a given strictly increasing initial datum in C,the solution of the initial value problem is piecewise C smooth except for flux functions of nonconvex conservation laws in a certain subset of C of first category,defined in the range of the initial datum.
متن کاملA total variation diminishing high resolution scheme for nonlinear conservation laws
In this paper we propose a novel high resolution scheme for scalar nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. The aim of high resolution schemes is to provide at least second order accuracy in smooth regions and produce sharp solutions near the discontinuities. We prove that the proposed scheme that is derived by utilizing an appropriate flux limiter is nonlinear stable in the sense of total varia...
متن کاملDynamics in the fundamental solution of a nonconvex conservation law
There is a huge jump in the theory of conservation laws if the convexity assumption is dropped. In this paper we study a scalar conservation law without the convexity assumption by monitoring the dynamics in the fundamental solution. Three extra shock types are introduced other than the usual genuine shock, which are left, right and double sided contacts. There are three kinds of phenomena of t...
