Abstract:
In this article we consider a viscous regularization of a p-system with
a Van der Waals pressure law, which presents both hyperbolic and elliptic
zones. Even if the purely hyperbolic Van der Walls system is strongly ill-posed,
we prove that the solutions of the regularized equation exist and experience
a transition from ellipticity to hyperbolicity, i.e. solutions issued
from initial data in the elliptic zone will enter the hyperbolic zone at
some time T>0, and viceversa.
