Download or read book Systems of Quasilinear Equations and Their Applications to Gas Dynamics written by Boris Leonidovich Rozhdestvenski_ and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1983-12-31 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is essentially a new edition, revised and augmented by results of the last decade, of the work of the same title published in 1968 by ``Nauka.'' It is devoted to mathematical questions of gas dynamics. Topics covered include Foundations of the Theory of Systems of Quasilinear Equations of Hyperbolic Type in Two Independent Variables; Classical and Generalized Solutions of One-Dimensional Gas Dynamics; Difference Methods for Solving the Equations of Gas Dynamics; and Generalized Solutions of Systems of Quasilinear Equations of Hyperbolic Type.
