Abstract
We analyze a one-dimensional fluid–particle interaction model, composed by the Burgers equation for the fluid velocity and an ordinary differential equation which governs the particle movement. The coupling is achieved through a friction term. One of the novelties is to consider entropy weak solutions involving shock waves. The difficulty is the interaction between these shock waves and the particle. We prove that the Riemann problem with arbitrary data always admits a solution, which is explicitly constructed. Besides, two asymptotic behaviors are described: the long-time behavior and the behavior for large friction coefficients.
