Balance laws with integrable unbounded sources

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We consider the Cauchy problem for a nimesn strictly hyperbolic system of balance laws {{array}{c} u_t+f(u)_x=g(x,u), x in mathbb{R}, t>0 u(0,.)=u_o in L^1 cap BV(mathbb{R}; mathbb{R}^n), | lambda_i(u)| geq c > 0 {for all} iin {1,...,n}, |g(x,cdot)|_{mathbf{C}^2}leq ilde M(x) in L1, {array}. each characteristic field being genuinely nonlinear or linearly degenerate. Assuming that the mathbfL1 norm of |g(x,cdot)|mathbfC1 and |uo|BV(eali) are small enough, we prove the existence and uniqueness of global entropy solutions of bounded total variation extending the result in [1] to unbounded (in Linfty) sources. Furthermore, we apply this result to the fluid flow in a pipe with discontinuous cross sectional area, showing existence and uniqueness of the underlying semigroup.
