Abstract. We consider here second-order finite volume methods for onedimensional scalar conservation laws. We give a method to determine a slope reconstruction satisfying all the exact numerical entropy inequalities. It avoids inhomogeneous slope limitations and, at least, gives a convergence rate of ∆x 1/2 . It is obtained by a theory of second-order entropic projections involving values at the nodes of the grid and a variant of error estimates, which also gives new results for the first-order Engquist-Osher scheme.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
