TITLE	Coupling of Linear Elastic Equations and Compressible Euler Equations and Stiffened Gas
AUTHORS	Michael Herty, Siegfried Müller, Aleksey Sikstel
ABSTRACT	Modelling of cavitation phenomena requires coupling of models for fluid and solid materials. For this purpose we extend a strategy based on the solution of coupled Riemann problems, proposed in [9]. The coupling strategy for the case of perfect gas equation of state has been established and validated in [8]. In this work we include the case of a stiffened gas and derive conditions under which there exists a unique solution to coupled Riemann problems.
