It is well understood that boundary conditions (BCs) may cause global radial basis function (RBF) methods to become unstable for hyperbolic conservation laws (CLs). Here we investigate this phenomenon and identify the strong enforcement of BCs as the mechanism triggering such stability issues. Based on this observation we propose a technique to weakly enforce BCs in RBF methods. In the case of hyperbolic CLs, this is achieved by carefully building RBF methods from the weak form of the CL, rather than the typically enforced strong form. Furthermore, we demonstrate that global RBF methods may violate conservation, yielding physically unreasonable solutions when the approximation does not take into account these considerations. Numerical experiments validate our theoretical results.

In this work, we investigate (energy) stability of global radial basis function (RBF) methods for linear advection problems. Classically, boundary conditions (BC) are enforced strongly in RBF methods. By now it is well-known that this can lead to stability problems, however. Here, we follow a different path and propose two novel RBF approaches which are based on a weak enforcement of BCs. By using the concept of flux reconstruction and simultaneous approximation terms (SATs), respectively, we are able to prove that both new RBF schemes are strongly (energy) stable. Numerical results in one and two spatial dimensions for both scalar equations and systems are presented, supporting our theoretical analysis.
We formulate an oversampled radial basis function generated finite difference (RBF-FD) method to solve time-dependent nonlinear conservation laws. The analytic solutions of these problems are known to be discontinuous, which leads to occurrence of non-physical oscillations (Gibbs phenomenon) that pollute the numerical solutions and can make them unstable. We address these difficulties using a residual based artificial viscosity stabilization, where the residual of the conservation law indicates the approximate location of the shocks. The location is then used to locally apply an upwind viscosity term, which stabilizes the Gibbs phenomenon and does not smear the solution away from the shocks. The proposed method is numerically tested and proves to be robust and accurate when solving scalar conservation laws and systems of conservation laws, such as compressible Euler equations.

The selection of time step plays a crucial role in improving stability and efficiency in the Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) solution of hyperbolic conservation laws on adaptive moving meshes that typically employs explicit stepping. A commonly used selection of time step has been based on CFL conditions established for fixed and uniform meshes. This work provides a mathematical justification for those time step selection strategies used in practical adaptive DG computations. A stability analysis is presented for a moving mesh DG method for linear scalar conservation laws. Based on the analysis, a new selection strategy of the time step is proposed, which takes into consideration the coupling of the $alpha$-function (that is related to the eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix of the flux and the mesh movement velocity) and the heights of the mesh elements. The analysis also suggests several stable combinations of the choices of the $alpha$-function in the numerical scheme and in the time step selection. Numerical results obtained with a moving mesh DG method for Burgers and Euler equations are presented.
Meshfree methods based on radial basis function (RBF) approximation are of interest for numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) because they are flexible with respect to the geometry of the computational domain, they can provide high order convergence, they are not more complicated for problems with many space dimensions and they allow for local refinement. The aim of this paper is to show that the solution of the Rosenau equation, as an example of an initial-boundary value problem with multiple boundary conditions, can be implemented using RBF approximation methods. We extend the fictitious point method and the resampling method to work in combination with an RBF collocation method. Both approaches are implemented in one and two space dimensions. The accuracy of the RBF fictitious point method is analysed partly theoretically and partly numerically. The error estimates indicate that a high order of convergence can be achieved for the Rosenau equation. The numerical experiments show that both methods perform well. In the one-dimensional case, the accuracy of the RBF approaches is compared with that of a pseudospectral resampling method, showing similar or slightly better accuracy for the RBF methods. In the two-dimensional case, the Rosenau problem is solved both in a square domain and in a starfish-shaped domain, to illustrate the capability of the RBF-based methods to handle irregular geometries.
In this paper, we propose a hybrid finite volume Hermite weighted essentially non-oscillatory (HWENO) scheme for solving one and two dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws. The zeroth-order and the first-order moments are used in the spatial reconstruction, with total variation diminishing Runge-Kutta time discretization. The main idea of the hybrid HWENO scheme is that we first use a shock-detection technique to identify the troubled cell, then, if the cell is identified as a troubled cell, we would modify the first order moment in the troubled cell and employ HWENO reconstruction in spatial discretization; otherwise, we directly use high order linear reconstruction. Unlike other HWENO schemes, we borrow the thought of limiter for discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method to control the spurious oscillations, after this procedure, the scheme would avoid the oscillations by using HWENO reconstruction nearby discontinuities and have higher efficiency for using linear approximation straightforwardly in the smooth regions. In addition, the hybrid HWENO scheme still keeps the compactness. A collection of benchmark numerical tests for one and two dimensional cases are performed to demonstrate the numerical accuracy, high resolution and robustness of the proposed scheme.
