Abstract

The Weighted Upwinding Compact Scheme in this dissertation has been constructed due to dissipation and dispersion analysis at each stencil. The new scheme is applied to many one-dimensional typical problems involving discontinuities and shock waves, and it maintains a 7th order of accuracy in smooth areas. Additionally, when using the technology of decoupling the system of WUCS, the global dependency problem of the compact scheme is transferred to a local dependency problem in shock regions. As a result of the decoupling method, the shocks are captured sharply with fewer points compared to the related schemes. Furthermore, high order, high resolution, and non-oscillation are achieved. In future work, there will be an effort to apply the new scheme to the 2-D and 3-D Navier-Stokes equations and to multi-dimensional flows with shock-turbulence interaction.
