Characteristics of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation can be seen as action minimizing trajectories of fluid particles. For nonsmooth "viscosity" solutions, which give rise to discontinuous velocity fields, this description is usually pursued only…

The numerical simulation of the inviscid Burgers' equation is often hindered by spurious oscillations near discontinuities. To mitigate this issue, a viscous term can be introduced, leading to the viscous Burgers' equation. In this work,…
