Active Visual Tracking (AVT) faces significant challenges in distracting environments characterized by occlusions and confusion. Current methodologies address this challenge through the integration of a mixed ...

Environmental problems are endowed with the causal complexity of multiple factors. Traditional quantitative research on the influencing mechanism of environmental pollution has tended to focus on the marginal ...

The two position four way direction valve is a commonly used hydraulic component, which is widely used in some hydraulic oil circuits. In this paper, a typical cartridge valve consisting of cartridge two posit...

We construct semi-hyperbolic patches of solutions, in which one family out of two nonlinear families of characteristics starts on sonic curves and ends on transonic shock waves, to the two-dimensional Euler eq...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We describe a patch in the self-similar plane as a semi-hyperbolic wave which is locally hyperbolic, but not all characteristics in the patch leads to given boundary data, for the two-dimensional compressible ...

The global existence and structures of solutions to multi-dimensional unsteady compressible Euler equations are interesting and important open problems. In this paper, we construct global classical solutions t...

In this paper, we solve a system of hyperbolic equations by modelling nematic liquid crystals.

Riemann problems for the compressible Euler system in two space dimensions are complicated and difficult, but a viable alternative remains missing. The author lists merits of one-dimensional Riemann problems a...

We construct classical self-similar solutions to the interaction of two arbitrary planar rarefaction waves for the polytropic Euler equations in two space dimensions. The binary interaction represents a major ...

We investigate the equation (u t +(f(u)) x ) x =f ′ ′(u) (u ...

We present a characteristic decomposition of the potential flow equation in the self-similar plane. The decomposition allows for a proof that any wave adjacent to a constant state is a simple wave for the adia...

We establish the existence of a conservative weak solution to the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear variational wave equation u tt − c(u)(c(u)u ...

We establish the existence of a global solution to a regular reflection of a shock hitting a ramp for the pressure gradient system of equations. The set-up of the reflection is the same as that of Mach’s experime...
Article
We present a global solution to a Riemann problem for the pressure gradient system of equations. The Riemann problem has initially two shock waves and two contact discontinuities. The angle between the two shock ...
Article
We establish the global existence of weak solutions to the Cauchy problem for a nonlinear variational wave equation, where the wave speed is a given monotone function of the wave amplitude. The equation arise...

Chapter
In this chapter we outline the problems to be studied, namely, the two-dimensional (2-D) compressible Euler system. When special conditions such as irrotationality are assumed, we reduce the Euler system to si...

In this chapter we solve one-dimensional Riemann problems for the following systems: isentropic and adiabatic Euler systems for polytropic gases, Lax’s strictly hyperbolic and genuinely nonlinear systems, nonc...
Chapter
Our study of the Burgers equation has helped us in studying the 1-D Euler systems. We hope that the study of 2-D scalar Riemann problems will be similarly useful. As we will see, 2-D Riemann problems are a lot...
