Exact solutions of a nonconservative system in elastodynamics

Kayyunnapara Thomas Joseph

Abstract:
In this article we find an explicit formula for solutions of a nonconservative system when the initial data lies in the level set of one of the Riemann invariants. Also for nonconservative shock waves in the sense of Volpert we derive an explicit formula for the viscous shock profile.
