contents This work is concerned with Hamilton-Jacobi equations of evolution type posed in domains and supplemented with boundary conditions. Hamiltonians are coercive but are neither convex nor quasiconvex. We analyse boundary conditions when understood in the sense of viscosity solutions. This analysis is based on the study of boundary conditions of evolution type. More precisely, we give a new formula for the relaxed boundary conditions derived by J. Guerand (J. Differ. Equations, 2017). This new point of view unveils a connection between the relaxation operator and the classical Godunov flux from the theory of conservation laws. We apply our methods to two classical boundary value problems. It is shown that the relaxed Neumann boundary condition is expressed in terms of Godunov's flux while the relaxed Dirichlet boundary condition reduces to an obstacle problem at the boundary associated with the lower non-increasing envelope of the Hamiltonian.
