| Abstract: |
 |
This paper deals with the coupling of a quasilinear parabolic problem with a first order hyperbolic one in a multidimensional bounded domain $\Omega $. In a region $\Omega _{p}$ a diffusion-advection-reaction type equation is set while in the complementary $\Omega _{h}\equiv \Omega \backslash \Omega _{p}$, only advection-reaction terms are taken into account. Suitable transmission conditions along the interface $\partial \Omega _{p}\cap \partial \Omega _{h}$ are required. We select a weak solution characterized by an entropy inequality on the whole domain. This solution is given by a vanishing viscosity method. |
