Title : Lectures on Numerical Methods for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws

Abstract:
 Hyperbolic conservation laws arise as model equations in a variety of different applications. The key defining characteristic of hyperbolic conservation laws are the finite propagation of information. Some examples of applications include traffic flow, porous media flow, tsunami modeling, compressible gas dynamics, plasma physics, and general relativity. In these four lectures I will introduce the idea of hyperbolic conservation laws, explain the paradigm of finite volume methods (FVM), explain the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (DG-FEM), and discuss issues related to non-oscillatory and positivity-preserving limiters. At the end I will describe some recent and ongoing work on the Lax-Wendroff DG-FEM and its associated limiters.
