Assessment of three WENO type schemes for nonlinear conservative flux functions
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper focuses on a new comparison of the behavior of three Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) type numerical schemes for three different nonlinear fluxes, in the case of scalar conservation law. The analytical solution is provided for various boundary conditions. For the time integration we adopt the 4-6 stage Low-Dispersion Low-Dissipation Runge-Kutta method (LDDRK 4-6). The schemes were tested on piecewise constant function for non-periodical conditions. The assessment was performed because the specialized literature mainly presents cases favorable illustrating only to a particular method while our purpose is to objectively present the performance and capacity of each method to simulate simple cases like scalar conservation law problems. All the schemes accurately identify the position of the shock and converge to the proper weak solution for the non-linear fluxes and different initial conditions. The paper is a continuation of the efficiency and accuracy analysis of high order numerical schemes previously published by the authors [1,2].

Two and Three Dimensional Blood Flow Simulations in Different Types of Blood Vessels
In this paper we present a synthesis of our results obtained on blood flow simulation in different types of blood vessels. We present first some remarks on the wall shear stress (WSS) in the case of a human abdominal aor...
A Possible Universe in Pulsation by Using a Hydro-Dynamical Model for Gravity
By using a hydro-dynamical model for gravity previously given by the author, a pulsating universe is possible to describe. This is possible because two hydro-dynamical sources are in attraction both when they are emittin...
Nonlinear Lifting-Line Model using a Vector Formulation of the Unsteady Kutta-Joukowski Theorem
In this paper, a vector form of the unsteady Kutta-Joukowski theorem is derived and then used in the formulation of a general Lifting-Line Model capable of analysing a wide range of engineering problems of interest. The...
