Well-posedness for a class of hyperbolic systems and shock stability for the viscous approximation

Rahul Barthwal, Lilu Sahu

We establish the global well-posedness of weak solutions to the Cauchy problem for a broad class of multi-dimensional Keyfitz-Kranzer type systems with homogeneous flux…

On hyperbolic approximations for a class of dispersive and diffusive-dispersive equations

Rahul Barthwal, Firas Dhaouadi, Christian Rohde

We introduce novel approximate systems for dispersive and diffusive-dispersive equations with nonlinear fluxes. For purely dispersive equations, we construct a first-order, strictl…

Existence and stability of the Riemann solutions for a non-symmetric Keyfitz--Kranzer type model

Rahul Barthwal, Christian Rohde, Anupam Sen

In this article, we develop a new hyperbolic model governing the first-order dynamics of a thin film flow under the influence of gravity and solute transport. The obtained system t…

A generalized Riemann problem solver for a hyperbolic model of two-layer thin film flow

Rahul Barthwal, Christian Rohde, Yue Wang

In this paper, a second-order generalized Riemann problem (GRP) solver is developed for a two-layer thin film model. Extending the first-order Godunov approach, the solver is used…

A hyperbolic model for two-layer thin film flow with a perfectly soluble anti-surfactant

Rahul Barthwal, Christian Rohde

We consider the motion of a two-layer thin film that consists of two immiscible viscous fluids and is endowed with an anti-surfactant solute. The presence of such solute particles…
