At first, a special auxiliary problem having some advantages over the main problem has been proposed and using the advantages of the auxiliary problem an original method for obtaining the weak solution of the main problem has been proposed. In order to show the effectiveness of the suggested method, on the basis of the real data some numerical experiments have been carried out.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAuxiliary problemDifferences scheme in a class of discontinuous functionsExtended solutionTraffic flowFinding the location of the shock wave of traffic flow on highways in a class of discontinuous functionsArticle2-s2.0-33751571773134612Q413435
