These systems of conservation laws are known to have discontinuous solutions. Discontinuities are the source of spurious oscillations in the solution profile of the numerical approximation, when a high order accurate numerical method is used. Different techniques are reviewed in order to control spurious oscillations. A shock detection technique is shown to be useful in order to determine the regions where the spurious oscillations appear such that a Limiter can be used to eliminate these numeric artifacts. To guarantee the positivity of specific variables like the density and the pressure, a positivity preserving limiter is used. Furthermore, a numerical flux, proven to preserve the entropy stability of the semi-discrete DG scheme for the MHD system is used. Finally, the numerical schemes are implemented using the deal.II C++ libraries in the dflo code. The solution of common test cases show the capability of the method.}, subject = {Eulersche Differentialgleichung}, language = {en} } @article{LuKlingenbergRendonetal.2014, author = {Lu, Yun-guang and Klingenberg, Christian and Rendon, Leonardo and Zheng, De-Yin}, title = {Global Solutions for a Simplified Shallow Elastic Fluids Model}, series = {Abstract and Applied Analytics}, journal = {Abstract and Applied Analytics}, number = {920248}, issn = {1687-0409}, doi = {10.1155/2014/920248}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-117978}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The Cauchy problem for a simplified shallow elastic fluids model, one 3 x 3 system of Temple's type, is studied and a global weak solution is obtained by using the compensated compactness theorem coupled with the total variation estimates on the first and third Riemann invariants, where the second Riemann invariant is singular near the zero layer depth (rho - 0). This work extends in some sense the previous works, (Serre, 1987) and (Leveque and Temple, 1985), which provided the global existence of weak solutions for 2 x 2 strictly hyperbolic system and (Heibig, 1994) for n x n strictly hyperbolic system with smooth Riemann invariants.}, language = {en} }
