In this paper we introduce a general framework for defining and studying essentially nonoscillatory reconstruction procedures of arbitrarily high order of accuracy, interpolating data in the central stencil around a given computational cell (CWENO). This technique relies on the same selection mechanism of smooth stencils adopted in WENO, but here the pool of candidates for the selection includes polynomials of different degrees. This seemingly minor difference allows us to compute the analytic expression of a polynomial interpolant, approximating the unknown function uniformly within a cell, instead of only at one point at a time. For this reason this technique is particularly suited for balance laws for finite volume schemes, when averages of source terms require high order quadrature rules based on several points; in the computation of local averages, during refinement in h-adaptive schemes; or in the transfer of the solution between grids in moving mesh techniques, and in general when a globally defined reconstruction is needed. Previously, these needs have been satisfied mostly by ENO reconstruction techniques, which, however, require a much wider stencil than the CWENO reconstruction studied here, for the same accuracy.

Abstract

In this paper we introduce a general framework for defining and studying essentially nonoscillatory reconstruction procedures of arbitrarily high order of accuracy, interpolating data in the central stencil around a given computational cell (CWENO). This technique relies on the same selection mechanism of smooth stencils adopted in WENO, but here the pool of candidates for the selection includes polynomials of different degrees. This seemingly minor difference allows us to compute the analytic expression of a polynomial interpolant, approximating the unknown function uniformly within a cell, instead of only at one point at a time. For this reason this technique is particularly suited for balance laws for finite volume schemes, when averages of source terms require high order quadrature rules based on several points; in the computation of local averages, during refinement in h-adaptive schemes; or in the transfer of the solution between grids in moving mesh techniques, and in general when a globally defined reconstruction is needed. Previously, these needs have been satisfied mostly by ENO reconstruction techniques, which, however, require a much wider stencil than the CWENO reconstruction studied here, for the same accuracy.
