“…Considering the cases with sufficiently small viscosity and comparing our results with the results for inviscid case in [2,6,8], one can easily understand the following fact: There is a critical speed separating the continuous profiles from the discontinuous ones of (1.2), as was shown in [8], where the critical speed c cri = min [u k ,u j ] f (u). When ε = 0, it is easy to check that in nonconvex convection cases (f (u k ) may not equal to min [u k ,u j ] f (u)), only for speeds c < c cri there exist smooth monotone waves (iii) of (1.2), no smooth waves exist for the case c cri c c * 0 with c * 0 satisfying min [u k ,u j ] f (u) c * 0 f (u k ).…”
