Abstract
We illustrate an alternative derivation of the viscous regulariza- tion of a nonlinear forward-backward diffusion equation which was studied in [A. Novick-Cohen and R. L. Pego. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 324:331{351]. We propose and discuss a new on-smooth" variant of the viscous regulariza- tion and we offer an heuristic argument that indicates that this variant should display interesting hysteretic efiects. Finally, we offer a constructive proof of existence of solutions for the viscous regularization based on a suitable approx- imation scheme.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
