[1] We introduce the application of an arbitrary high-order derivative (ADER) discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method to simulate earthquake rupture dynamics. The ADER-DG method uses triangles as computational cells which simplifies the process of discretization of very complex surfaces and volumes by using external automated tools. Discontinuous Galerkin methods are well suited for solving dynamic ...

In this paper we apply the ADER one step time discretization to the Discontinuous Galerkin framework for hyperbolic conservation laws. In the case of linear hyperbolic systems we obtain a quadrature-free explicit single-step scheme of arbitrary order of accuracy in space and time on Cartesian and triangular meshes. The ADERDG scheme does not need more memory than a first order explicit Euler ti...

We present the first high order one-step ADER-WENO finite volume scheme with Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) in multiple space dimensions. High order spatial accuracy is obtained through a WENO reconstruction, while a high order one-step time discretization is achieved using a local space-time discontinuous Galerkin predictor method. Due to the one-step nature of the underlying scheme, the resul...

Propagation of transient mechanical waves in porous media is numerically investigated in 1D. The framework is the linear Biot’s model with frequency-independant coefficients. The coexistence of a propagating fast wave and a diffusive slow wave makes numerical modeling tricky. A method combining three numerical tools is proposed: a fourth-order ADER scheme with time-splitting to deal with the ti...

We present a theoretical solution for the Riemann problem for the five-equation two-phase non-conservative model of Saurel and Abgrall. This solution is then utilized in the construction of upwind non-conservative methods to solve the general initial-boundary value problem for the two-phase flow model in non-conservative form. The basic upwind scheme constructed is the non-conservative analogue...

An adaptive ADER finite volume method on unstructured meshes is proposed. The method combines high order polyharmonic spline WENO reconstruction with high order flux evaluation. Polyharmonic splines are utilised in the recovery step of the finite volume method yielding a WENO reconstruction that is stable, flexible and optimal in the associated Sobolev (BeppoLevi) space. The flux evaluation is ...

This work concerns the solution of generalized Riemann problems. To this end, we consider the ADER scheme of Titarev & Toro (2002), which relies on a generalization of the classical Godunov scheme. Another solution method is the power series expansion of LeFloch & Raviart (1988). We analyze the two resulting approximation schemes, where we show that for scalar 1d problems the Toro-Titarev solve...
