The interactions of elementary waves for the relativistic Euler equations are shown. The collision of two shocks, two centered rarefaction waves, a shock and a rarefaction wave yield corresponding ransmitted waves. The overtaking of two shocks appears a transmitted shock wave, together with a reflected centered rarefaction wave.展开更多

This problem has been studied by Sun and Sheng, however the so-called degenerate shock solutions did not satisfy the R-H condition. In the present paper, the Riemann solutions of twelve regions in the v - u plane are completely constructed by the Liu-entropy condition. Our Riemann solutions are very different to that one obtained by Sun and Sheng in some regions.展开更多
