The numerical interface coupling of nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws : II. The case of systems
We study the theoretical and numerical coupling of two hyperbolic systems of conservation laws at a fixed interface. As already proven in the scalar case, the coupling preserves in a weak sense the continuity of the solution at the interface without imposing the overall conservativity of the coupled model. We develop a detailed analysis of the coupling in the linear case. In the nonlinear case, we either use a linearized approach or a coupling method based on the solution of a Riemann problem. We...

The p-system II: The vacuum
We consider the equations of isentropic gas dynamics in Lagrangian coordinates. We are interested in global interactions of large waves, and their relation to global solvability and well-posedness for large data. One of the main difficulties in this program is the possible occurrence of a vacuum, in which the specific volume is infinite. In this paper we show that the vacuum cannot be generated in finite time. More precisely, if the vacuum is present for some positive time, then it must be present...

Time-dependent numerical modeling of large-scale astrophysical processes: from relatively smooth flows to explosive events with extremely large discontinuities and high Mach numbers
We calculate self-consistent time-dependent models of astrophysical processes. We have developed two types of our own (magneto) hydrodynamic codes, either the operator-split, finite volume Eulerian code on a staggered grid for smooth hydrodynamic flows, or the finite volume unsplit code based on the Roe's method for explosive events with extremely large discontinuities and highly supersonic outbursts. Both the types of the codes use the second order Navier-Stokes viscosity to realistically model...
