Coupled transport equations with freezing

Analysis of PDEs 2024-06-10 v2

Abstract

We study a system of two coupled transport equations with freezing. The solutions freeze in time when they are equal. We prove existence and uniqueness of continuous solutions if the initial conditions are continuous. We discuss several qualitative and quantitative properties of the solutions. The equations arise in a model for collisions of a large number of tightly spaced balls.
