Second-order accurate upwind and centered schemes are presented in a framework that facilitates their analysis and comparison. The upwind scheme employed consists of a reconstruction step (MUSCL approach) followed by an upwind step (Roe's flux-difference splitting). The two centered schemes are of Lax-Friedrichs (L-F) type. They are the nonstaggered versions of the Nessyahu-Tadmor (N-T) scheme and the CE/SE method with epilson = 1/2. The upwind scheme is extended to the case of two spatial dimensions (2D) in a straightforward manner. The N-T and CE/SE schemes are extended in a manner similar to the 2D extensions of the CE/SE scheme by Wang and Chang for a triangular mesh and by Zhang, Yu, and Chang for a quadrilateral mesh. The slope estimates, however, are simplified. Fourier stability and accuracy analyses are carried out for these schemes for the standard 1D and the 2D quadrilateral mesh cases. In the nonstandard case of a triangular mesh, the triangles must be paired up when analyzing the upwind and N-T schemes. An observation resulting in an extended N-T scheme which is faster and uses only one-third of the storage for flow data compared with the CE/SE method is presented. Numerical results are shown. Other improvements to the schemes are discussed.Huynh, H.

These proceedings collect the papers presented at the 30th International Symposium on Shock Waves (ISSW30), which was held in Tel-Aviv Israel from July 19 to July 24, 2015. The Symposium was organized by Ortra Ltd. The ISSW30 focused on the state of knowledge of the following areas: Nozzle Flow, Supersonic and Hypersonic Flows with Shocks, Supersonic Jets, Chemical Kinetics, Chemical Reacting Flows, Detonation, Combustion, Ignition, Shock Wave Reflection and Interaction, Shock Wave Interaction with Obstacles, Shock Wave Interaction with Porous Media, Shock Wave Interaction with Granular Media, Shock Wave Interaction with Dusty Media, Plasma, Magnetohyrdrodynamics, Re-entry to Earth Atmosphere, Shock Waves in Rarefied Gases, Shock Waves in Condensed Matter (Solids and Liquids), Shock Waves in Dense Gases, Shock Wave Focusing, Richtmyer-Meshkov Instability, Shock Boundary Layer Interaction, Multiphase Flow, Blast Waves, Facilities, Flow Visualization, and Numerical Methods. The two volumes serve as a reference for the participants of the ISSW30 and anyone interested in these fields.
This book describes the theoretical and computational aspects of the mimetic finite difference method for a wide class of multidimensional elliptic problems, which includes diffusion, advection-diffusion, Stokes, elasticity, magnetostatics and plate bending problems. The modern mimetic discretization technology developed in part by the Authors allows one to solve these equations on unstructured polygonal, polyhedral and generalized polyhedral meshes. The book provides a practical guide for those scientists and engineers that are interested in the computational properties of the mimetic finite difference method such as the accuracy, stability, robustness, and efficiency. Many examples are provided to help the reader to understand and implement this method. This monograph also provides the essential background material and describes basic mathematical tools required to develop further the mimetic discretization technology and to extend it to various applications.
