Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin method using WENO limiters II: Unstructured meshes

In [20], Qiu and Shu investigated using weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) finite volume methodology as limiters for the Runge-Kutta discontinuous Galerkin (RKDG) methods for solving nonlinear hyperbolic conservation law systems on structured meshes. In this continuation paper, we extend the method to solve two dimensional problems on unstructured meshes, with the goal of obtaining a robust and high order limiting procedure to simultaneously obtain uniform high order accuracy and sharp, nonoscillatory shock transition for RKDG methods. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the behavior of this procedure.
