This paper deals with the mathematical analysis of a quasilinear parabolic-hyperbolic problem in a multidimensional bounded domain Ω. In a region Ωp a diffusion-advection-reaction type equation is set, while in the complementary Ωh ≡ Ω\Ωp, only advection-reaction terms are taken into account. To begin we provide a definition of a weak solution through an entropy inequality on the whole domain. Since the interface ∂Ωp ∩ ∂Ωh contains outward characteristics for the first-order operator in Ωh, the uniqueness proof starts by considering first the hyperbolic zone and then the parabolic one. The existence property uses the vanishing viscosity method and to pass to the limit on the hyperbolic zone, we refer to the notion of process solution.

AbstractIt has been observed experimentally that when a free shear layer is perturbed by a disturbance consisting of two waves with frequencies ${\omega }_{0} $ and ${\omega }_{1} $, components with the combination frequencies $(m{\omega }_{0} \pm n{\omega }_{1} )$ ($m$ and $n$ being integers) develop to a significant level thereby causing flow randomization. This spectral broadening process is investigated theoretically for the case where the frequency difference $({\omega }_{0} \ensuremath{-} {\omega }_{1} )$ is small, so that the perturbation can be treated as a modulated wavetrain. A nonlinear evolution system governing the spectral dynamics is derived by using the non-equilibrium nonlinear critical layer approach. The formulation provides an appropriate mathematical description of the physical concepts of sideband instability and amplitude–phase modulation, which were suggested by experimentalists. Numerical solutions of the nonlinear evolution system indicate that the present theory captures measurements and observations rather well.
