Nonclassical shock waves of conservation laws: Flux function having two inflection points

We consider the Riemann problem for non-genuinely nonlinear conservation laws where the flux function admits two inflection points. This is a simplification of van der Waals fluid pressure, which can be seen as a function of the specific volume for a specific entropy at which the system lacks the...
