Undercompressive shock waves and the Dafermos regularization
نویسندگان
چکیده
For a system of conservation laws in one space dimension, we identify all structurally stable Riemann solutions that include only shock waves. Shock waves are required to satisfy the viscous profile criterion for a given viscosity (B(u)ux)x . Undercompressive shock waves are allowed. We also show that all such Riemann solutions have nearby smooth solutions of the Dafermos regularization with the given viscosity. Mathematics Subject Classification: 35L65, 35L67, 34C37, 34E15

Dafermos Regularization of a Diffusive-dispersive Equation with Cubic Flux
We study existence and spectral stability of stationary solutions of the Dafermos regularization of a much-studied diffusive-dispersive equation with cubic flux. Our study includes stationary solutions that corresponds to Riemann solutions consisting of an undercompressive shock wave followed by a compressive shock wave. We use geometric singular perturbation theory (1) to construct the solutio...
متن کاملSingular limits for a parabolic-elliptic regularization of scalar conservation laws
We consider scalar hyperbolic conservation laws with a nonconvex flux, in one space dimension. Then, weak solutions of the associated initial-value problems can contain undercompressive shock waves. We regularize the hyperbolic equation by a parabolic-elliptic system that produces undercompressive waves in the hyperbolic limit regime. Moreover we show that in another limit regime, called capill...
متن کاملSlow Eigenvalues of Self-similar Solutions of the Dafermos Regularization of a System of Conservation Laws: An Analytic Approach
The Dafermos regularization of a system of n hyperbolic conservation laws in one space dimension has, near a Riemann solution consisting of n Lax shock waves, a self-similar solution u=u∈(X/T ). In Lin and Schecter (2003, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 35, 884–921) it is shown that the linearized Dafermos operator at such a solution may have two kinds of eigenvalues: fast eigenvalues of order 1/∈ and slow...
متن کاملUndercompressive Shocks in Thin Film Flows
Equations of the type ht + (h2 − h)x = − (hhxxx)x arise in the context of thin liquid films driven by the competing effects of a thermally induced surface tension gradient and gravity. In this paper, we focus on the interaction between the fourth order regularization and the nonconvex flux. Jump initial data, from a moderately thick film to a thin precurser layer, is shown to give rise to a dou...
متن کاملComposite Waves in the Dafermos Regularization
The result of this paper is that certain composite-wave solutions of scalar conservation laws have nearby scale-invariant solutions of the Dafermos regularization. This result supports the conjecture that all structurally stable Riemann solutions have scale-invariant solutions of the Dafermos regularization nearby. It thereby supports the validity of approximating Riemann solutions by numerical...
