Hello Mr. Wang,

Can we rather say that if :

du/dt were to be zero (implying no change in slope of the solution with respect to time)

when : the governing equations hold true for the smooth region of the solution

then : dx/dt will have to be equal to (del.f/del.u)


I am able to make sense of the things in this order
rather than

when we already define the characteristic line as a straight line by saying X = ct, and then saying that it will be a straight line if c= del.f/del.u which will give du/dt = 0, because the governing equations were true and thus the slope doesn't change along the characteristic line.


Kind Regards

Hello,

Tell me if i am wrong, the solution f '(u) = sin(u), then burgers equation would be f(u) = -cos x, which it isn't, so did you just take solution of burger's eqn here as sin u for demonstrating purposes only?
