Corrigendum to "Spurious behavior of shock-capturing methods by the fractional step approach: Problems containing stiff source terms and discontinuities" [J. Comput. Physics 241 (2013) 266-291]

This corrigendum contains a correction to some of the figures in the article ‘‘Spurious behavior of shock-capturing methods by the fractional step approach: Problems containing stiff source terms and discontinuities’’ [J. Comput. Phys. 241 (2013) 266–291]. There was a computer coding error in the computer code that generates the results. The coding error consists of failing to update the temperature from the final solution of the RK4 convection step time evolution before the reaction step using the Strang splitting in Eq. (29). In addition, if Nr > 1, the error includes no update to the temperature for each sub-iteration on the reaction step in Eq. (29). The error affects Figs. 5–12, 14–17, 19–22. By fixing the bug in the computer code, there are minor difference in the solution behavior by the studied numerical methods with the majority of the conclusion remains the same. There is however an improvement (reduction) in the spurious behavior by WENO5/SR. The correction to the text portion are:
