We show that the structure of the pieeewise C^1 solution u = u（t, x） of the problem, which can be regarded as a perturbation of the corresponding Riemann problem, is globally similar to that of the solution u = U（x/t） of the corresponding Riemann problem. The piecewise C^1 solution u = u（t, x） to this kind of problems is globally structure-stable if and only if it contains only non-degenerate shocks and contact discontinuities, but no rarefaction waves and other weak discontinuities.展开更多

文摘In this paper, we investigate a class of mixed initial-boundary value problems for a kind of n × n quasilinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws on the quarter plan. We show that the structure of the pieeewise C^1 solution u = u（t, x） of the problem, which can be regarded as a perturbation of the corresponding Riemann problem, is globally similar to that of the solution u = U（x/t） of the corresponding Riemann problem. The piecewise C^1 solution u = u（t, x） to this kind of problems is globally structure-stable if and only if it contains only non-degenerate shocks and contact discontinuities, but no rarefaction waves and other weak discontinuities.
