High order Hybrid central-WENO finite difference scheme for conservation laws

In this article we present a high resolution hybrid central finite difference-WENO scheme for the solution of conservation laws, in particular, those related to shock-turbulence interaction problems. A sixth order central finite difference scheme is conjugated with a fifth order weighted essentially non-oscillatory WENO scheme in a grid-based adaptive way. High order multi-resolution analysis is used to detect the high gradients regions of the numerical solution in order to capture the shocks with the WENO scheme while the smooth regions are computed with the more efficient and accurate central finite difference scheme. The application of high order filtering to mitigate the dispersion error of central finite difference schemes is also discussed. Numerical experiments with the 1D compressible Euler equations are shown.
