Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5757470
This final report covers research in the following three areas: (1) Non-strictly hyperbolic conservation laws: Change of type of equations modeling three-phase flow in porous media, solution of Riemann problems; (2) Plastic flow in two dimensions: Linear stability of homogeneous deformations, justification of the quasidynamic approximation; and (3) Glimm's method for the vibrating string' discovery of exact solutions related to a periodic motion.
