In this paper, we analyze the Lax-Wendroff discontinuous Galerkin (LWDG) method for solving linear conservation laws. The method was originally proposed by Guo et al. in [11], where they applied local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) techniques to approximate high order spatial derivatives in the Lax-Wendroff time discretization. We show that, under the standard CFL condition τ ≤ λh (where τ and h ...

We develop an alternative formulation of conservative finite difference weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) schemes to solve conservation laws. In this formulation, the WENO interpolation of the solution and its derivatives are used to directly construct the numerical flux, instead of the usual practice of reconstructing the flux functions. Even though this formulation is more expensive...

This study proposes one-dimensional advection diffusion equation (ADE) with finite differences method (FDM) using spreadsheet simulation (ADESS). By changing only the values of weighted parameter with ADESS model, solutions are obtained for the FTSC, Upwind and Lax Wendroff schemes. Two examples which, have the numerical and analytical solutions in literature, are solved in order to test the pr...

Chlorine is a widely used disinfectant and proxy for water quality (WQ) monitoring in distribution networks (WDN). Chlorine-based WQ regulation control aims to maintain pathogen-free water. residual evolution within WDN commonly modeled using the typical single-species decay reaction dynamics that account network-wide, spatiotemporal chlorine concentrations only. Prior studies have proposed mor...

We have recently introduced a new cell-centered Lax-Wendroff HLL hybrid scheme for Lagrangian hydrodynamics [Fridrich et al. J. Comp. Phys. 326 (2016) 878-892] with results presented only on logical rectangular quadrilateral meshes. In this study we present an improved version unstructured meshes, including uniform triangular and hexagonal meshes non-uniform polygonal The performance of the is ...

This note presents a preliminary study of the supra-convergence of well-balanced (finite volume) schemes for conservation laws with a (nonlinear) geometrical source term. In particular, we consider scalar (linear) advection equations in one dimension, for which smooth analytical solutions are available, and upwind interfacial discretizations for the numerical simulation on nonuniform grids (als...

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]...
