Abstract
In this paper, we develop a modified fifth order accuracy finite difference Hermite WENO (HWENO) scheme for solving hyperbolic conservation laws. The main idea is that we first modify the derivatives of the solution by Hermite WENO interpolations, then we discretize the original and derivative equations in the spatial directions by the same approximation polynomials. Comparing with the original finite difference HWENO scheme of Liu and Qiu (J Sci Comput 63:548–572, 2015), one of the advantages is that the modified HWENO scheme is more robust than the original one since we do not need to use the additional positivity-preserving flux limiter methodology, and larger CFL number can be applied. Another advantage is that higher order numerical accuracy than the original scheme can be achieved for two-dimensional problems under the condition of using the same approximation stencil and information. Furthermore, the modified scheme preserves the nice property of compactness shared by HWENO schemes, i.e., only immediate neighbor information is needed in the reconstruction, and it has smaller numerical errors and higher resolution than the classical fifth order finite difference WENO scheme of Jiang and Shu (J Comput Phys 126:202–228, 1996). Various benchmark numerical tests of both one-dimensional and two-dimensional problems are presented to illustrate the numerical accuracy, high resolution and robustness of the proposed novel HWENO scheme.
