In this paper, a fifth-order Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) scheme with artificial linear weights is proposed for one and two dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws, where the zeroth-order and the first-order moments are used in the spatial reconstruction. We construct the HWENO methodology using a nonlinear convex combination of a high degree polynomial with several low degree polynomials, and the associated linear weights can be any artificial positive numbers with only requirement that their summation equals one. The one advantage of the HWENO scheme is its simplicity and easy extension to multi-dimension in engineering applications for we can use any artificial linear weights which are independent on geometry of mesh. The another advantage is its higher order numerical accuracy using less candidate stencils for two dimensional problems. In addition, the HWENO scheme still keeps the compactness as only immediate neighbor information is needed in the reconstruction and has high efficiency for directly using linear approximation in the smooth regions. In order to avoid nonphysical oscillations nearby strong shocks or contact discontinuities, we adopt the thought of limiter for discontinuous Galerkin method to control the spurious oscillations. Some benchmark numerical tests are performed to demonstrate the capability of the proposed scheme.
In this paper, we propose a well-balanced fifth-order finite difference Hermite WENO (HWENO) scheme for the shallow water equations with non-flat bottom topography in pre-balanced form. For achieving the well-balance property, we adopt the similar idea of WENO-XS scheme [Xing and Shu, J. Comput. Phys., 208 (2005), 206-227.] to balance the flux gradients and the source terms. The fluxes in the original equation are reconstructed by the nonlinear HWENO reconstructions while other fluxes in the derivative equations are approximated by the high-degree polynomials directly. And an HWENO limiter is …

In this paper, we propose to combine the fifth order Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) scheme and fast sweeping method (FSM) for the solution of the steady-state $S_{N}$ transport equation in the finite volume framework. It is well-known that the $S_{N}$ transport equation asymptotically converges to a macroscopic diffusion equation in the limit of optically thick systems with small absorption and sources. Numerical methods which can preserve the asymptotic limit are referred to as asymptotic preserving methods. In the one-dimensional case, we provide the analysis to demonst…
The decisive factor for the calculation accuracy of the mapped weighted essentially non-oscillatory scheme is the width of the center region of the mapping function. Through analysis of the classical mapped WENO schemes, the results show the width of the central range of the mapping function determined by the local operator in its denominator. Substituting the local operator in WENO-AIM with a symmetric one and an asymmetric function, we get two new adaptive mapped WENO schemes, WENO-AIMS and WENO-AIMA. Similarly, we improve WENO-RM260 and WENO-PM6 by using these local operators, and composed …
In this paper, we propose a novel Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) fast sweeping method to solve the static Hamilton-Jacobi equations efficiently. During the HWENO reconstruction procedure, the proposed method is built upon a new finite difference fifth order HWENO scheme involving one big stencil and two small stencils. However, one major novelty and difference from the traditional HWENO framework lies in the fact that, we do not need to introduce and solve any additional equations to update the derivatives of the unknown function $ϕ$. Instead, we use the current $ϕ$ and t…
In this paper, we propose a hybrid finite volume Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) scheme for solving one and two dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws. The zeroth-order and the first-order moments are used in the spatial reconstruction, with total variation diminishing Runge-Kutta time discretization. The main idea of the hybrid HWENO scheme is that we first use a shock-detection technique to identify the troubled cell, then, if the cell is identified as a troubled cell, we would modify the first order moment in the troubled cell and employ HWENO reconstruction in spatia…
In this paper we propose new Z-type nonlinear weights of the fifth-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) finite difference scheme for hyperbolic conservation laws. Instead of employing the classical smoothness indicators for the nonlinear weights, we take the $p$th root of the smoothness indicators and follow the form of Z-type nonlinear weights, leading to fifth order accuracy in smooth regions, even at the critical points, and sharper approximations around the discontinuities. We also prove that the proposed nonlinear weights converge to the linear weights as $p \to \infty$, impl…
We present fourth-order conservative non-splitting semi-Lagrangian (SL) Hermite essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) schemes for linear transport equations with applications for nonlinear problems including the Vlasov-Poisson system, the guiding center Vlasov model, and the incompressible Euler equations in the vorticity-stream function formulation. The proposed SL HWENO schemes combine a weak formulation of the characteristic Galerkin method with two newly constructed HWENO reconstruction methods. Fourth-order accuracy is accomplished in both space and time under a non-splitting setting. Mass …
In this paper, we combine the nonlinear HWENO reconstruction in \cite{newhwenozq} and the fixed-point iteration with Gauss-Seidel fast sweeping strategy, to solve the static Hamilton-Jacobi equations in a novel HWENO framework recently developed in \cite{mehweno1}. The proposed HWENO frameworks enjoys several advantages. First, compared with the traditional HWENO framework, the proposed methods do not need to introduce additional auxiliary equations to update the derivatives of the unknown function $ϕ$. They are now computed from the current value of $ϕ$ and the previous spatial derivatives of…
The advantage of WENO-JS5 scheme [ J. Comput. Phys. 1996] over the WENO-LOC scheme [J. Comput. Phys.1994] is that the WENO-LOC nonlinear weights do not achieve the desired order of convergence in smooth monotone regions and at critical points. In this article, this drawback is achieved with the WENO-LOC smoothness indicators by constructing a WENO-Z type nonlinear weights which contains a novel global smoothness indicator. This novel smoothness indicator measures the derivatives of the reconstructed flux in a global stencil, as a result, the proposed numerical scheme could decrease the dissipa…

Fixed-point iterative sweeping methods were developed in the literature to efficiently solve steady state solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations and hyperbolic conservation laws. Similar as other fast sweeping schemes, the key components of this class of methods are the Gauss-Seidel iterations and alternating sweeping strategy to achieve fast convergence rate. Furthermore, good properties of fixed-point iterative sweeping methods include that they have explicit forms and do not involve inverse operation of nonlinear local systems, and they can be applied to general hyperbolic equations using a…
In this paper we extensively study the stochastic Galerkin scheme for uncertain systems of conservation laws, which appears to produce oscillations already for a simple example of the linear advection equation with Riemann initial data. Therefore, we introduce a modified scheme that we call the weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) stochastic Galerkin scheme, which is constructed to prevent the propagation of Gibbs phenomenon into the stochastic domain by applying a slope limiter in the stochasticity. In order to achieve a high order method, we use a spatial WENO reconstruction and also …
We propose an alternative reconstruction for weighted essentially non-oscillatory schemes with adaptive order (WENO-AO) for solving hyperbolic conservation laws. The alternative reconstruction has a more concise form than the original WENO-AO reconstruction. Moreover, it is a strictly convex combination of polynomials with unequal degrees. Numerical examples show that the alternative reconstruction maintains the accuracy and robustness of the WENO-AO schemes.
Provably convergent Newton-Raphson methods for recovering primitive variables with applications to physical-constraint-preserving Hermite WENO schemes for relativistic hydrodynamics
Spectral approximation based on Hermite-Fourier expansion of the Vlasov-Poisson model for a collisionless plasma in the electro-static limit is provided, by including high-order artificial collision operators of Lenard-Bernstein type. These differential operators are suitably designed in order to preserve the physically-meaningful invariants (number of particles, momentum, energy). In view of time-discretization, stability results in appropriate norms are presented. In this study, necessary conditions link the magnitude of the artificial collision term, the number of spectral modes of the disc…
