Reconstruction Techniques and Finite Volume Schemes for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

Artebrant, Robert LU (2006) In Doctoral Theses in Mathematical Sciences
Abstract
This thesis concerns the numerical



approximation of the solutions to



hyperbolic conservation laws.



In particular the research work focuses



on reconstruction techniques;



the reconstruction being the key



ingredient in modern finite volume



schemes aiming to increase spatial



order of accuracy. To better conform



to the nature of the solutions to



the hyperbolic problems, the



reconstructing function is non-polynomial; in contrast to other reconstructions this allows us to have a continuous function representation, possibly having an... (More)
This thesis concerns the numerical



approximation of the solutions to



hyperbolic conservation laws.



In particular the research work focuses



on reconstruction techniques;



the reconstruction being the key



ingredient in modern finite volume



schemes aiming to increase spatial



order of accuracy. To better conform



to the nature of the solutions to



the hyperbolic problems, the



reconstructing function is non-polynomial; in contrast to other reconstructions this allows us to have a continuous function representation, possibly having an extremum, within each spatial cell without limiting slopes. The flexible and simple to use reconstruction enables in a novel manner the derivation of schemes that efficiently combine the properties of accuracy, resolution and damping of spurious oscillations. Furthermore, applicability of the reconstruction is not restricted to Cartesian meshes as demonstrated by numerically solving the Euler equations of gas dynamics on triangular meshes in the finite volume context.
