Abstract In this paper we study the propagation of shock waves in elastic materials that do not conduct heat. We derive a differential equation relating the strain and strain gradient behind the wave when the region ahead is unstrained and at constant entropy. Using this equation we are able to give conditions under which the wave will grow or decay at a given time. Generally, the results are qualitatively the same as in the purely mechanical theory.

Herein, an efficient algorithm is proposed to solve a one-dimensional hyperbolic partial differential equation. To reach an approximate solution, we employ the θ-weighted scheme to discretize the time interval into a finite number of time steps. In each step, we have a linear ordinary differential equation. Applying the Galerkin method based on interpolating scaling functions, we can solve this ODE. Therefore, in each time step, the solution can be found as a continuous function. Stability, consistency, and convergence of the proposed method are investigated. Several numerical examples are devoted to show the accuracy and efficiency of the method and guarantee the validity of the stability, consistency, and convergence analysis.

Abstract In continuation of the work on interaction between shock waves and magnetic fields 1,2 the experiments reported here measured the atomic and electron densities in the interaction region by means of an interferometric and a spectroscopic method. The transient atomic density was also calculated using a one-dimensional theory based on the work of Johnson3 , but modified to give an improved physical model. The experimental results were compared with the theoretical predictions.

Abstract We establish sufficient conditions under which the rate function for the Euler approximation scheme for a solution of a one-dimensional stochastic differential equation on the torus is close to that for an exact solution of this equation.
