[GS_M_APP] Shocks and contact discontinuities for the steady Euler system
ABSTRACT
There are two types of discontinuous transition phenomena in inviscid compressible flows, shocks and contact discontinuities. We will discuss the existence and stability of shocks and contact discontinuities for the steady Euler system. The Helmholtz decomposition method and the iteration method for 2-D and 3-D axisymmetric flows with nonzero vorticity will be introduced.
