Lax-Wendroff method for incompressible flow

The Near - Stability of the Lax - Wendroff Method

In discussing finite difference methods for the solution of hyperbolic par t ia l differential equations, STETrER [1] used est imates on some absolutely convergent Fourier series to prove stabi l i ty and instabi l i ty with respect to uniform convergence. I f / , a complex valued function on the circle, has an absolutely convergent Fourier series, then the n-th power of ] also has an absolutel...

A Lax-Wendroff type theorem for unstructured quasi-uniform grids

A well-known theorem of Lax and Wendroff states that if the sequence of approximate solutions to a system of hyperbolic conservation laws generated by a conservative consistent numerical scheme converges boundedly a.e. as the mesh parameter goes to zero, then the limit is a weak solution of the system. Moreover, if the scheme satisfies a discrete entropy inequality as well, the limit is an entr...

Approximate Lax-Wendroff discontinuous Galerkin methods for hyperbolic conservation laws

The Lax-Wendro↵ time discretization is an alternative method to the popular total variation diminishing Runge-Kutta time discretization of discontinuous Galerkin schemes for the numerical solution of hyperbolic conservation laws. The resulting fully discrete schemes are known as LWDG and RKDG methods, respectively. Although LWDG methods are in general more compact and e cient than RKDG methods ...

An inverse Lax-Wendroff method for boundary conditions applied to Boltzmann type models

In this paper we present a new algorithm based on a Cartesian mesh for the numerical approximation of kinetic models on complex geometry boundary. Due to the high dimensional property, numerical algorithms based on unstructured meshes for a complex geometry are not appropriate. Here we propose to develop an inverse Lax-Wendroff procedure, which was recently introduced for conservation laws [21]...
