Title: High-resolution schemes for hyperbolic conservation laws

Abstract

This paper presents a class of new explicit second order accurate finite difference schemes for the computation of weak solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws. These highly nonlinear schemes are obtained by applying a nonoscillatory first order accurate scheme to an appropriately modified flux function. The so derived second order accurate schemes achieve high resolution while preserving the robustness of the original nonoscillatory first order accurate scheme. Numerical experiments are presented to demonstrate the performance of these new schemes.
