We are interested in the numerical approximation of discontinuous solutions non conservative hyperbolic systems. An extension to second-order a new strategy based on in-cell reconstructions deal with this challenging topic is presented. This combination first-order reconstruction standard MUSCL-Hancock reconstruction. The allowed particular capture exactly isolated shocks and keep property. Mor...
