We study a regularization of the classical Saint-Venant (shallow-water) equations, recently introduced by D. Clamond and D. Dutykh (Commun. Nonl. Sci. Numer. Simulat. 55 (2018) 237-247). This regularization is non-dispersive and formally…

We consider in this paper a diffusion-convection reaction equation in one space dimension. The main assumptions are about the reaction term, which is monostable, and the diffusivity, which changes sign once or twice; then, we deal with a…

Reaction-advection-diffusion equations, in periodic settings and with general type nonlinearities, admit a threshold known as the minimal speed of propagation. The minimal speed does not have an accessible formula when the nonlinearity is…

Ideal gas dynamics can develop shock-like singularities with discontinuous density. Viscosity typically regularizes such singularities and leads to a shock structure. On the other hand, in 1d, singularities in the Hopf equation can be…
