On the Convergence of Quasilinear Viscous Approximations with Degenerate Viscosity

Abstract

We use Velocity Averaging lemma to show that the almost everywhere limit of quasilinear viscous approximations is the unique entropy solution (in the sense of {\it F. Otto}) of the corresponding scalar conservation laws on a bounded domain in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$, where the viscous term is of the form $\epsilon div\left(B(u^{\epsilon })\nabla u^{\epsilon }\right)$ and $B\ge 0$.
