Local well-posedness of a Hamiltonian regularisation of the Saint-Venant system with uneven bottom

Abstract

We prove in this note the local (in time) well-posedness of a broad class of 2 × 2 symmetrisable hyperbolic system involving additional non-local terms. The latest result implies the local well-posedness of the non dispersive regularisation of the Saint-Venant system with uneven bottom introduced by Clamond et al. [2]. We also prove that, as long as the first derivatives are bounded, singularities cannot appear.
