โฆ Synopsis
Nonlinear, hyperbolic systems of conservation laws such as the Euler equations of fluid dynamics admit a strict Riemann invariant, e.g. the physical entropy. Here we discuss the structure of such systems, emphasizing the effects of changes of variables, the existence of equivalent symmetric systems, and entropy conditions for discontinuities in the form of entropy inequalities. 1995 Academic Press.

A simple approximate Riemann solver for hyperbolic systems of conservation laws is developed for its use in Godunov schemes. The solver is based on characteristic formulations and is illustrated through Euler and ideal magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) equations. The procedure of a high-order Godunov sche
