This book was released on 1973-01-01 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the mathematical side of the theory of shock waves. The author presents what is known about the existence and uniqueness of generalized solutions of the initial value problem subject to the entropy conditions. The subtle dissipation introduced by the entropy condition is investigated and the slow decay in signal strength it causes is shown.
