چکیده

We consider a scalar conservation law with a discontinuous flux function. The fluxes are non-convex, have multiple points of extrema and can have arbitrary intersections. We propose an entropy formulation based on interface connections and associated jump conditions at the interface. We show that the entropy solutions with respect to each choice of interface connection exist and form a contractive semi-group in L1. Existence is shown by proving convergence of a Godunov type scheme by a suitable modification of the singular mapping approach. This extends the results of [3] to the general case of non-convex flux geometries.

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...

Minimality property for entropic solutions to scalar conservation laws in 1 + 1 dimensions

Abstract : The Second Law of Thermodynamics asserts that the physical entropy of an adiabatic system is an increasing function in time. In this paper we will study a more stringent version of this law, according to which the entropy should not only increase in time, but the rate of increase is optimal in absolute value among all possible evolutions. We will establish this property in the framew...

Existence of strong traces for quasi-solutions of multidimensional scalar conservation laws

Abstract. We consider a conservation law in the domain Ω ⊂ Rn+1 with C1 boundary ∂Ω. For the wide class of functions including generalized entropy suband super-solutions we prove existence of strong traces for normal components of the entropy fluxes on ∂Ω. No non-degeneracy conditions on the flux are required.

Non-dissipative Entropy Satisfying Discontinuous Reconstruction Schemes for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

In this paper, we derive non-dissipative stable and entropy satisfying finite volume schemes for scalar PDEs. It is based on the previous analysis of [20], which deals with general reconstruction schemes. More precisely, we develop discontinuous-in-cell reconstruction schemes, based on a discontinuous reconstruction of the solution in each cell of the mesh at each time step. The intend is to ha...

New Entropy Conditions for the Scalar Conservation Law with Discontinuous Flux

We propose new Kruzhkov type entropy conditions for one dimensional scalar conservation law with a discontinuous flux in rather general form (no convexity or genuine linearity is needed). We prove existence and uniqueness of the entropy admissible weak solution to the corresponding Cauchy problem merely under the assumption that initial data belong to the BVclass. Such initial data enable us to...
