Abstract
AbstractThe discontinuous Riemann initial value problem is considered for dissipative, constant coefficient hyperbolic systems with relaxation source terms. A short‐time asymptotic expansion, a specialization of the results of Le Floch and Raviart [11], is constructed for the general linear system. Exact rates for the decay of the initial discontinuities are found to be in agreement with recent results from other approaches. A multiple scales analysis is used to identify the long‐time asymptotic behavior. Many of the results can be exemplified in a simple model problem for which the exact solution can be found.
