Compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is a common feature of astrophysical systems such as the solar atmosphere and interstellar medium. Such systems are rife with shock waves that can redistribute and dissipate energy. For an…

In hyperbolic dissipative systems, the solution of the shock structure is not always continuous and a discontinuous part (sub-shock) appears when the velocity of the shock wave is greater than a critical value. In principle, the sub-shock…
In this paper, the Riemann problem for the pressureless Euler equations with a discontinuous source term is considered. The delta shock wave solution is obtained by combining the generalized Rankine-Hugoniot conditions together with the…
An explosively generated shockwave with time-dependent radius $R(t)$ is characterized by a phase in which the shocked gas becomes radiative with an effective adiabatic index $\gamma \simeq 1$. Using the result that the post-shock gas is…
Hele-Shaw flow at vanishing surface tension is ill-defined. In finite time, the flow develops cusp-like singularities. We show that the ill-defined problem admits a weak {\it dispersive} solution when singularities give rise to a graph of…
This paper studies the stability and large-time behavior of the three-dimensional (3-D) Boltzmann equation near shock profiles. We prove the nonlinear stability of the composite wave consisting of two shock profiles under general…
In a $\delta-$shock model, a system subject to randomly occurring shocks, the system fails when the time between two successive shocks lies below a threshold $\delta$. In this note, we study the generalization of this model where such…
