The Regularized Chapman-Enskog Expansion for Scalar Conservation Laws

چکیده

ROSENAO [R] has recently proposed a regularized version of the ChapmanEnskog expansion of hydrodynamics. This regularized expansion resembles the usual Navier-Stokes viscosity terms at low wave numbers, but unlike the latter, it has the advantage of being a bounded macroscopic approximation to the linearized collision operator. In this paper we study the behavior of the Rosenau regularization of the Chapman-Enskog expansion (R-C-E) in the context of scalar conservation laws. We show that this R-C-E model retains the essential properties of the usual viscosity approximation, e.g., existence of travelling waves, monotonicity, upper-Lipschitz continuity, etc., and at the same time, it sharpens the standard viscous shock layers. We prove that the regularized R-C-E approximation converges to the underlying inviscid entropy solution as its mean-free-path e $ 0, and we estimate the convergence rate.

Regularized Chapman-enskog Expansion for Scalar Conservation Laws

Rosenau Phys. Rev. A, 40 (1989), pp. 7193-6] has recently proposed a regularized version of the Chapman-Enskog expansion of hydrodynamics. This regularized expansion resembles the usual Navier-Stokes viscosity terms at law wave-numbers, but unlike the latter, it has the advantage of being a bounded macroscopic approximation to the linearized collision operator.

A reduced stability condition for nonlinear relaxation to conservation laws

We consider multidimensional hyperbolic systems of conservation laws with relaxation, together with their associated limit systems. A strong stability condition for such asymptotics has been introduced by Chen, Levermore, Liu in Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 47, 787-830, namely the existence of an entropy extension. We propose here a new stability condition, the reduced stability condition, which is w...

A Subgrid-Scale Deconvolution Approachfor Shock Capturing

We develop a method for the modeling of flow discontinuities which can arise as weak solutions of inviscid conservation laws. Due to its similarity with recently proposed approximate deconvolution models for large-eddy simulation, the method potentially allows for a unified treatment of flow discontinuities and turbulent subgrid scales. A filtering approach is employed since for the filtered ev...

Hyperbolic Balance Laws with a Non Local Source

This paper is devoted to hyperbolic systems of balance laws with non local source terms. The existence, uniqueness and Lipschitz dependence proved here comprise previous results in the literature and can be applied to physical models, such as Euler system for a radiating gas and Rosenau regularization of the Chapman-Enskog expansion. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 35L65, 76N15

A 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...
