Abstract
A class of strictly hyperbolic systems of conservation laws are proposed and studied. Firstly, the Riemann problem with initial data of two piecewise constant states is constructively solved. The solutions involving contact discontinuities and delta shock waves are obtained. The generalized Rankine–Hugoniot relation and entropy condition for the delta shock wave are clarified and the existence and uniqueness of the delta-shock solution is proved. Furthermore, the global structure of solutions with five different configurations is constructed via investigating the interactions of delta shock waves and contact discontinuities. Finally, we present a typical example to illustrate the application of the system introduced.
