High order finite difference hermite WENO schemes for the Hamilton-Jacobi equations on unstructured meshes

摘要

In this paper, a new type of high order Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) methods is proposed to solve the Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) equations on unstructured meshes. We use a fourth order accurate scheme to demonstrate our procedure. Both the solution and its spatial derivatives are evolved in time. Our schemes have three advantages. First, they are more compact than the one in [38] as more information is used at each node which allows us to achieve the same high order accuracy with a more compact stencil. Second, the new HWENO approximation on the unstructured mesh allows arbitrary positive linear weights, which enhances the stability of our scheme. Third, the new HWENO procedure produces an approximation polynomial on each triangle, which allows us to compute all the spatial derivatives at the three nodes of each triangle based on this single polynomial, instead of computing each derivative individually with different linear weights in the classical HWENO framework, which improves the efficiency of our scheme. Extensive numerical experiments are performed to verify the accuracy, high resolution and efficiency of this new scheme. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
