Third-order 2D Central Schemes for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

INRIA School on Hyperbolic Systems, Vol. I, 1998, 489-504


We extend a one-dimensional central-scheme first introduced by Liu and Tadmor, to the rather general framework of two-dimensional systems of conservation laws. This scheme is based on a two-dimensional piecewise-quadratic reconstruction computed from the cell-averages at each time-step. Our scheme is implemented for the incompressible two-dimensional Euler equation demonstrating its high-resolution nature.
