Stability and convergence of the difference schemes for equations of isentropic gas dynamics in Lagrangian coordinates
For the initial-boundary value problem (IBVP) if isentropic gas dynamics written in Lagrangian coordinates written in terms of Riemann invariants we show how to obtain necessary conditions for existence of global smooth solution using the Lax technique. Under these conditions we formulate the existence theorem in the class of piecewise-smooth functions. A priori estimates with respect to the input data for the difference scheme approximating this problem are obtained. The estimates of stability are proved using only restrictions on the initial and boundary conditions corresponding the differential problem. In the general case the estimates have been obtained only for the finite instant of time t < t0. The monotonicity has been proved in the both cases. The uniqueness and convergence of the difference solution are also considered. The results of the numerical experiment illustrating theoretical statements are given.
