Abstract: | In this paper, we study the interaction of elementary waves including delta‐shock waves on a boundary for a hyperbolic system of conservation laws. A boundary entropy condition is derived, thanks to the results of Dubois and Le Floch (J. Differ. Equations 1988; 71 :93–122) by taking a suitable entropy–flux pair. We obtain the solutions of the initial‐boundary value problem for the system constructively, in which initial‐boundary data are piecewise constant states. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
