Hyberbolic Conservation Laws in Continuum Physics
Publication year: 2005
: 978-3-540-29089-6
This masterly exposition of the mathematical theory of hyperbolic system for conservation laws brings out the intimate connection with continuum thermodynamics, by emphasising issues in which the analysis may reveal something about the physics and, in return, the underlying physical structure may direct and drive the analysis.Theis edition contains chapter recounting the exciting recent developments on the vanishing viscosity method. Numerous new sections have been incorporated in preexisting chapters, to introduce newly derived results or present older material
: Mathematics and Statistics, Entropy, hyperbolic conservation laws, partial differential equation, partial differential equations, thermodynamics
