Abstract:

In this paper, we consider the unstable blowup mechanism for 2D isentropic compressible Euler equations with damping under azimuthal symmetry. We construct a suitable self-similar coordinate transformation for the damped Euler equations which is different from the general Euler equations. Besides, we also choose a kind of initial data which asymptotically converges to the unstable $C^{{1}/{5}}$ self-similar solution of the Burgers equation with damping. In addition, we introduce the modulation variables and the Newton iteration to describe the unstable shock. Further, the blowup profile has a cusp singularity of $C^{{1}/{5}}$ Hölder regularity at the blowup time.

Key words: compressible Euler equations, damping, unstable shock, modulation variables.
