An analysis of the influence of data extrema on some first and second order central approximations of hyperbolic conservation laws

Michael Breuss (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We discuss the occurrence of oscillations when using central schemes of the Lax-Friedrichs type (LFt), Rusanov's method and the staggered and non-staggered second order Nessyahu-Tadmor (NT) schemes. Although these schemes are monotone or TVD, respectively, oscillations may be introduced at local data extrema. The dependence of oscillatory properties on the numerical viscosity coefficient is investigated rigorously for the LFt schemes, illuminating also the properties of Rusanov's...

A note on ( 2 𝖪 + 1 ) -point conservative monotone schemes

Huazhong Tang, Gerald Warnecke (2004)

Similarity:

First–order accurate monotone conservative schemes have good convergence and stability properties, and thus play a very important role in designing modern high resolution shock-capturing schemes. Do the monotone difference approximations always give a good numerical solution in sense of monotonicity preservation or suppression of oscillations? This note will investigate this problem from a numerical point of view and show that a ( 2 K + 1 ) -point monotone scheme may give an oscillatory solution...

The correct use of the Lax–Friedrichs method

Michael Breuß (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

We are concerned with the structure of the operator corresponding to the Lax–Friedrichs method. At first, the phenomenae which may arise by the naive use of the Lax–Friedrichs scheme are analyzed. In particular, it turns out that the correct definition of the method has to include the details of the discretization of the initial condition and the computational domain. Based on the results of the discussion, we give a recipe that ensures that the number of extrema within the discretized...

Central-upwind schemes for the Saint-Venant system

Alexander Kurganov, Doron Levy (2002)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

We present one- and two-dimensional central-upwind schemes for approximating solutions of the Saint-Venant system with source terms due to bottom topography. The Saint-Venant system has steady-state solutions in which nonzero flux gradients are exactly balanced by the source terms. It is a challenging problem to preserve this delicate balance with numerical schemes. Small perturbations of these states are also very difficult to compute. Our approach is based on extending semi-discrete...
