| Title: The limits of Riemann solutions to the Euler equations of one-dimensional compressible fluid flow with a source term | |
| Abstract: In this talk, we discuss the limits of Riemann solutions to the Euler equations of one-dimensional compressible fluid flow with a Coulomb-like friction as the adiabatic exponent tends to one. Different from the homogeneous equations, the Riemann solutions of the inhomogeneous system are non self-similar. It is rigorously shown that, as the adiabatic exponent tends to one, any two-shock Riemann solution tends to a delta shock solution of the pressureless Euler system with a Coulomb-like friction, and the intermediate density between the two shocks tends to a weighted δ-mesaure which forms the delta shock; while any two-rarefaction-wave Riemann solution tends to a two-contact-discontinuity solution of the pressureless Euler system with a Coulomb-like friction, whose intermediate state between the two contact discontinuities is a vacuum state. Moreover, we also give some numerical results to confirm the theoretical analysis. This is a joint work with Shouqiong Sheng. | |
