HAL is a multi-disciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not. The documents may come from teaching and research institutions in France or abroad, or from public or private research centers. L'archive ouverte pluridisciplinaire HAL, est destinée au dépôt et à la diffusion de documents scientifiques de niveau recherche, publiés ou non, émanant des établissements d'enseignement et de recherche français ou étrangers, des laboratoires publics ou privés.
In the present paper, we study a system of viscous conservation laws, which is rewritten to a symmetric hyperbolic-parabolic system, in onedimensional half space. For this system, we derive a convergence rate of the solutions towards the corresponding stationary solution with/without the stability condition. The essential ingredient in the proof is to obtain the a priori estimate in the weighted Sobolev space. In the case that all characteristic speeds are negative, we show the solution converges to the stationary solution exponentially if an initial perturbation belongs to the exponential weighted Sobolev space. The algebraic convergence is also obtained in the similar way. In the case that one characteristic speed is zero and the other characteristic speeds are negative, we show the algebraic convergence of solution provided that the initial perturbation belongs to the algebraic weighted Sobolev space. The Hardy type inequality with the best possible constant plays an essential role in deriving the optimal upper bound of the convergence rate. Since these results hold without the stability condition, they immediately mean the asymptotic stability of the stationary solution even though the stability condition does not hold.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
