Dealing with strong shocks while retaining low numerical dissipation traditionally has been one of the major challenges for high order methods like discontinuous Galerkin (DG). In the literature, shock capturing models have been designed for DG based on various approaches, such as slope limiting, (H)WENO reconstruction, a posteriori sub-cell limiting, and artificial viscosity, among which a subclass of artificial viscosity methods are compared in the present work. Four models are evaluated, including a dilation-based model, a highest modal decay model, an averaged modal decay model, and an entropy viscosity model. Performance for smooth, non-smooth and broadband problems are examined with typical one- and two-dimensional cases.

Runge–Kutta methods

In numerical analysis, the Runge–Kutta methods (ˈrʊŋəˈkʊtɑː ) are a family of implicit and explicit iterative methods, which include the Euler method, used in temporal discretization for the approximate solutions of simultaneous nonlinear equations. These methods were developed around 1900 by the German mathematicians Carl Runge and Wilhelm Kutta. The most widely known member of the Runge–Kutta family is generally referred to as "RK4", the "classic Runge–Kutta method" or simply as "the Runge–Kutta method".

Euler method

In mathematics and computational science, the Euler method (also called the forward Euler method) is a first-order numerical procedure for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with a given initial value. It is the most basic explicit method for numerical integration of ordinary differential equations and is the simplest Runge–Kutta method. The Euler method is named after Leonhard Euler, who first proposed it in his book Institutionum calculi integralis (published 1768–1870).

Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations

Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Their use is also known as "numerical integration", although this term can also refer to the computation of integrals. Many differential equations cannot be solved exactly. For practical purposes, however – such as in engineering – a numeric approximation to the solution is often sufficient. The algorithms studied here can be used to compute such an approximation.

The explicit split-operator algorithm has been extensively used for solving not only linear but also nonlinear time-dependent Schrödinger equations. When applied to the nonlinear Gross–Pitaevskii equation, the method remains time-reversible, norm-conservin ...

Controlling oscillations in spectral schemes using Artificial Neural Networks

Global Fourier spectral methods are excellent tools to solve conserva- tion laws. They enable fast convergence rates and highly accurate solutions. However, being high-order methods, they suffer from the Gibbs phenomenon, which leads to spurious numerical ...
