We suggest a new model of the scale conservation equation in the mathematical theory of vehicular traffic flow on the fractal network based on the local fractional calculus.

We study one class of nonlinear fluid dynamic models with impulse source terms. The model consists of a system of two hyperbolic conservation laws: a nonlinear conservation law for the goods density and a linear evolution equation for the processing rate. We consider the case when influx-rates in the second equation take the form of impulse functions. Using the vanishing viscosity method and the so-called principle of fictitious controls, we show that entropy solutions to the original Cauchy problem can be approximated by optimal solutions of special optimization problems.

The concepts of convexity and entropy play a crucial role in the mathematical theory of hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. We show that they also play an important role in the mathematical analysis of convection theory, through the mathematical concept of rearrangement.
