Systems of Conservation Laws 2 - Geometric Structures, Oscillations, Initial Boundary Value Problems

Klappentext A graduate text on mathematical theory of conservation laws and partial differential equations. Zusammenfassung Following on from the previous volume! the author considers the maximum principle and compensated compactness! applying the latter to the description of large amplitude wave propagation. Applications to shock wave stability and certain problems in boundary layer theory are provided. Many exercises are included. Inhaltsverzeichnis 8. The maximum principle; 9.
