This article studies a Riemann problem for the so-called “[Formula: see text]-system”[Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], which rules one-dimensional isentropic thermoelastic media. Such study is made using a product of distributions that allows us to extend both the classical solution concept and a weak solution concept. By considering [Formula: see text] as an entire function that takes real values on the real axis, this product also extends for certain distributions [Formula: see text] the meaning of [Formula: see text]. Under certain conditions, this Riemann problem has solutions that are [Formula: see text]-shock waves. Furthermore, those [Formula: see text]-shock waves satisfy the so-called generalized Rankine–Hugoniot conditions.

The existence of a global weak solution of the one-dimensional hydrodynamic model for semiconductors is proved by the method of artificial viscosity and the theory of compensated compactness. The system is first regularized and global viscosity-solutions are constructed. Letting the viscosity-parameter tend to zero, we obtain a sequence of viscosity-solutions converging in L∞-weak* to a weak solution of the one-dimensional p-system from isoentropic gas dynamics with an electric field term and momentum relaxation. Since the equations are nonlinear and the convergence is only weak, the theory of Young-measures and compensated compactness is applied to obtain a weak solution of the limit problem.

AbstractThe present paper concerns the system ut + [ϕ(u)]x = 0, vt + [ψ(u)v]x = 0 having distributions as initial conditions. Under certain conditions, and supposing ϕ, ψ: ℝ → ℝ functions, we explicitly solve this Cauchy problem within a convenient space of distributions u,v. For this purpose, a consistent extension of the classical solution concept defined in the setting of a distributional product (not constructed by approximation processes) is used. Shock waves, δ-shock waves, and also waves defined by distributions that are not measures are presented explicitly as examples. This study is carried out without assuming classical results about conservation laws. For reader's convenience, a brief survey of the distributional product is also included.

In the setting of a product of distributions which is not defined by approximation processes, we are able to consider a Riemann problem for the system ut + [ϕ(u)]x = 0, vt + [ψ(u)v]x = 0, with the unknown states u, v in convenient spaces of distributions and ϕ, ψ : ℝ → ℝ continuous. A consistent extension of the classical solution concept will show the possible arising of a δ-shock wave solution. This procedure affords a simpler and more general framework to construct singular solutions and can surely be applied to other equations or systems.

Abstract In continuation of the work on interaction between shock waves and magnetic fields 1,2 the experiments reported here measured the atomic and electron densities in the interaction region by means of an interferometric and a spectroscopic method. The transient atomic density was also calculated using a one-dimensional theory based on the work of Johnson3 , but modified to give an improved physical model. The experimental results were compared with the theoretical predictions.

We consider the one-dimensional Burgers equation perturbed by a white noise term with Dirichlet boundary conditions and a non-Lipschitz coefficient. We obtain existence of a weak solution proving tightness for a sequence of polygonal approximations for the equation and solving a martingale problem for the weak limit.
