206 Neville HallTitle: Shocks formation for the 1D Burgers equation Abstract: The 1D Burgers equation is one of the simplest examples of a nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE). Like many other nonlinear PDEs, its solutions can exhibit shocks, where the solution ceases to be continuous in finite-time. The shocks and singularities formed by nonlinear PDEs are not […]
