A Third-Order Accurate Wave Propagation Algorithm for Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations

摘要

We extend LeVeque's wave propagation algorithm,a widely used finite volume method for hyperbolic partial differential equations,to a third-order accurate method.The resulting scheme shares main properties with the original method,i.e.,it is based on a wave decomposition at grid cell interfaces,it can be used to approximate hyperbolic problems in divergence form as well as in quasilinear form and limiting is introduced in the form of a wave limiter.
