Detailed Description

A propagating shock between two constant states.

The shock propagates left-to-right, with profile \(U(x, t) = U_R + (U_L - U_R) H(-(x - x_0 - v t))\). Here \(U_L\) and \(U_R\) are the left and right constant states, satisfying \(U_L > U_R\); \(H\) is the Heaviside function; \(x_0\) is the initial (i.e., \(t=0\)) position of the shock; and \(v = 0.5 (U_L + U_R)\) is the speed of the shock.

Note
At the shock, where \(x = x_0 + vt\), we have \(U(x, t) = U_L\). (This is inherited from the Heaviside implementation step_function.) Additionally, the time derivative \(\partial_t u0\) is zero, rather than the correct delta function.
