Abstract

Existing mapped WENO schemes can hardly prevent spurious oscillations while preserving high resolutions at long output times. We reveal in this paper the essential reason of such phenomena. It is actually caused by that the mapping function in these schemes can not preserve the order of the nonlinear weights of the stencils. The nonlinear weights may be increased for non-smooth stencils and be decreased for smooth stencils. It is then indicated to require the set of mapping functions to be order-preserving in mapped WENO schemes. Therefore, we propose a new mapped WENO scheme with a set of mapping functions to be order-preserving which exhibits a remarkable advantage over the mapped WENO schemes in references. For long output time simulations of the one-dimensional linear advection equation, the new scheme has the capacity to attain high resolutions and avoid spurious oscillations near discontinuities meanwhile. In addition, for the two-dimensional Euler problems with strong shock waves, the new scheme can significantly reduce the numerical oscillations.
