چکیده
where u : R × R → R is a vector of conserved variables (or state variables). For fluid dynamics, u is the vector of mass, momentum and energy denisties so that ∫ b a uj(x, t) dx is the total quantity of the j state variable in the interval at time t. Because these variables are conserved, ∫∞ −∞ uj(x, t) dx should be constant in t. The function f : R m → R is the flux function, which gives the rate of flow of the conserved variables at any point. The PDEs must be augmented by initial data, u(x, 0) = u0(x). Then the equation (1) and this initial data constitute the Cauchy problem. If (1) holds only on an interval [a, b] ∈ R, boundary data must be specified. We assume (1) is hyperbolic. That is, we assume the m×m Jacobian matrix A = f ′ = df du has m real eigenvalues λj(u), j = 1, . . . ,m and a complete set of linearly independent eigenvectors. This means that A is diagonalizable. The system is called strictly hyperbolic if these eigenvalues are distinct. In two space dimensions, the conservation law takes the form

The comparison of two high-order semi-discrete central schemes for solving hyperbolic conservation laws
This work presents two high-order, semi-discrete, central-upwind schemes for computing approximate solutions of 1D systems of conservation laws. We propose a central weighted essentially non-oscillatory (CWENO) reconstruction, also we apply a fourth-order reconstruction proposed by Peer et al., and afterwards, we combine these reconstructions with a semi-discrete central-upwind numerical flux ...
متن کاملA total variation diminishing high resolution scheme for nonlinear conservation laws
In this paper we propose a novel high resolution scheme for scalar nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. The aim of high resolution schemes is to provide at least second order accuracy in smooth regions and produce sharp solutions near the discontinuities. We prove that the proposed scheme that is derived by utilizing an appropriate flux limiter is nonlinear stable in the sense of total varia...

In this paper, a new approach is applied to study the self-similar solutions of 2×2 systems of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. A notion of characteristic directions is introduced and then used to construct local and smooth solutions of the associated Riemann problem
متن کاملA Finite Element, Multiresolution Viscosity Method for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws
It is well known that the classic Galerkin finite element method is unstable when applied to hyperbolic conservation laws such as the Euler equations for compressible flow. It is also well known that naively adding artificial diffusion to the equations stabilizes the method but sacrifices too much accuracy to be of any practical use. An elegant approach, referred to as spectral viscosity method...

Numerical Solution of hyperbolic conservation laws is important in computational fluid dynamics.
