چکیده

We consider an hyperbolic conservation law with discontinuous flux. Such partial differential equation arises in different applicative problems, in particular we are motivated by a model of traffic flow. We provide a new formulation in terms of Riemann Solvers. Moreover, we determine the class of Riemann Solvers which provide existence and uniqueness of the corresponding weak entropic solutions. Key-words: Conservation laws – discontinuous flux – Riemann Solvers– front tracking–traffic flow

A BGK approximation to scalar conservation laws with discontinuous flux

We study the BGK approximation to first-order scalar conservation laws with a flux which is discontinuous in the space variable. We show that the Cauchy Problem for the BGK approximation is well-posed and that, as the relaxation parameter tends to 0, it converges to the (entropy) solution of the limit problem.

Godunov-Type Methods for Conservation Laws with a Flux Function Discontinuous in Space

Abstract. Scalar conservation laws with a flux function discontinuous in space are approximated using a Godunov-type method for which a convergence theorem is proved. The case where the flux functions at the interface intersect is emphasized. A very simple formula is given for the interface flux. A numerical comparison between the Godunov numerical flux and the upstream mobility flux is present...

Hyperbolic Conservation Laws with Discontinuous Fluxes and Hydrodynamic Limit for Particle Systems

We study the following class of scalar hyperbolic conservation laws with discontinuous fluxes: ∂tρ + ∂xF (x, ρ) = 0. (0.1) The main feature of such a conservation law is the discontinuity of the flux function in the space variable x. Kruzkov’s approach for the L1-contraction does not apply since it requires the Lipschitz continuity of the flux function; and entropy solutions even for the Rieman...

Zero Diffusion-dispersion-smoothing Limits for Scalar Conservation Law with Discontinuous Flux Function

We consider multi-dimensional conservation laws with discontinuous flux, which are regularized with vanishing diffusion and dispersion terms and with smoothing of the flux discontinuities. We use the approach of Hmeasures [17] to investigate the zero diffusion-dispersion-smoothing limit. Content

Well-balanced schemes for conservation laws with source terms based on a local discontinuous flux formulation

We propose and analyze a finite volume scheme of the Godunov type for conservation laws with source terms that preserve discrete steady states. The scheme works in the resonant regime as well as for problems with discontinuous flux. Moreover, an additional modification of the scheme is not required to resolve transients, and solutions of nonlinear algebraic equations are not involved. Our well-...
