Abstract:In this article, we study the gas expansion problem by turning a sharp corner into a vacuum for the two‐dimensional (2‐D) pseudosteady compressible Euler equations with a convex equation of state. This problem can be considered as the interaction of a centered simple wave with a planar rarefaction wave. To obtain the global existence of a solution up to the vacuum boundary of the corresponding 2‐D Riemann problem, we consider several Goursat‐type boundary value problems for 2‐D self‐similar Euler equations and… Show more
