Abstract

The initial-value problem for small amplitude disturbances governed by the Navier-Stokes equations is considered. This is shown to be governed by a system of Burgers and diffusion equations. The asymptotic solution of the finite amplitude initial-value problem is obtained by the introduction of asymptotic initial data. The analysis is also applied to the solution of a semi-infinite shock tube problem.
