Consider pt+F, = 0 for some smooth flux function F(p) and define the characteristic
wave speed as
c(p) = F'(p) such that pt + c(p)Pz = 0..
Show that for strong solutions the inviscid Burgers equation holds for c(x, t), i.e.,
Ct + cCx = 0.
For strong solutions this is true for any choice of a smooth F(p). In the traffic
model case
F(p) = p – p².
Now show that the weak solutions of (2) based on the conservation of f cdx are
also identical to those of (1) based on the conservation of J p dx. (Hint: compare
the shock speeds.)
