Abstract : We consider a quasilinear hyperbolic system of partial differential equations to discuss the evolution of weakly nonlinear waves, where the evolution equation includes quadratic, cubic, and quartic nonlinear terms and the flux function admits two inflection points. We present an example from gasdynamics with analytical and numerical results demonstrating a wide range of wave phenomena, and study the interaction of expansion and compression waves evolving from a rectangular pulse.
