Abstract: | WENO5 uses a convex combination of the polynomials reconstructed on the three stencils of ENO3 in order to achieve higher accuracy on smooth profiles. However, in some cases WENO5 generates oscillations or smears near discontinuities due to the time scheme used. Here, we present a method to reduce those oscillations without damping and this yields a sharper approximation. Our technique uses smoothness indicators to identify severe shocks and switches from WENO5 to ENO3. Numerical tests show that the behaviour of WENO5 is improved near discontinuities while preserving high accuracy on smooth profiles. |
