THE EXISTENCE OF ONE-DIMENSIONAL STEADY SHOCK WAVES IN NONLINEAR MATERIALS WITH MEMORY.

Abstract

The dissertation establishes that for a large class of nonlinear materials with memory it is possible to find one dimensional steady motions which satisfy balance of momentum and exhibit stationary shock waves. (Author)
