Prerequisites: MATH 206B, MATH 207B; graduate standing; or consent of instructor
Description: Introduces standard numerical methods to approximate solutions to hyperbolic conservation laws such as upwind, Lax Friedrichs, Lax-Wendroff, construction of limiters, ENO, and WENO. Investigates entropy conditions, construction of numerical fluxes, monotonicity, and convergence and accuracy of numerical methods. Implements numerical methods on classic examples such as the Euler system.
