Abstract | This work focuses on the development of a self adjusting multirate strategy based on an implicit time discretization for the numerical solution of hyperbolic equations, that could benefit from different time steps in different areas of the spatial domain. We propose a novel mass conservative multirate approach, that can be generalized to various implicit time discretization methods. It is based on flux partitioning, so that flux exchanges between a cell and its neighbors are balanced.
A number of numerical experiments on both non-linear scalar problems and systems of hyperbolic
equations have been carried out to test the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed approach. |
