A New Hybrid WENO Scheme with the High-Frequency Region for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

Abstract

In this paper, a new kind of hybrid method based on the weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) type reconstruction is proposed to solve hyperbolic conservation laws. Comparing the WENO schemes with/without hybridization, the hybrid one can resolve more details in the region containing multi-scale structures and achieve higher resolution in the smooth region; meanwhile, the essentially oscillation-free solution could also be obtained. By adapting the original smoothness indicator in the WENO reconstruction, the stencil is distinguished into three types: smooth, non-smooth, and high-frequency region. In the smooth region, the linear reconstruction is used and the non-smooth region with the WENO reconstruction. In the high-frequency region, the mixed scheme of the linear and WENO schemes is adopted with the smoothness amplification factor, which could capture high-frequency wave efficiently. Spectral analysis and numerous examples are presented to demonstrate the robustness and performance of the hybrid scheme for hyperbolic conservation laws.
