Abstract
This paper concerns the asymptotic behaviors of the solutions to the initial-boundary value problem for scalar viscous conservations laws u t + f(u) x = u x,x on [0,1], with the boundary condition u(0,t)=u −,u(1t)=u + and the initial data u(x,0)= u 0(x), where u − ≠ u + and f is a given function satisfying f"u>0 for u under consideration. By means of energy estimates method and under some more regular conditions on the initial data, both the global existence and the asymptotic behavior are obtained. When u − < u +, which corresponds to rarefaction waves in inviscid conservation laws, no smallness conditions are needed. While for u − > u +, which corresponds to shock waves in inviscid conservation laws, it is established for weak shock waves, which means that |u − − u +| is small. Moreover, exponential decay rates are both given.
