Fifth-Order Mapped Semi-Lagrangian Weighted Essentially Nonoscillatory Methods Near Certain Smooth Extrema

Fifth-order mapped semi-lagrangian weighted essentially nonoscillatory (weno) methods at certain smooth extrema are developed in this study. the schemes contain the mapped semi-lagrangian finite volume (m-sl-fv) weno 5 method and the mapped compact semi-lagrangian finite difference (m-c-sl-fd) weno 5 method. the weights in the more common scheme lose accuracy at certain smooth extrema. we introduce mapped weighting to handle the problem. in general,a cell average is applied to construct the m-sl-fv weno 5 reconstruction,and the m-c-sl-fd weno 5 interpolation scheme is proposed based on an interpolation approach. an accuracy test and numerical examples are used to demonstrate that the two schemes reduce the loss of accuracy and improve the ability to capture discontinuities. © 2014 lang wu et al.
