Evaluating the Capability of the Flux-Limiter Schemes in Capturing Strong Shocks and Discontinuities

A numerical study is conducted to investigate the capability of the flux-limiter TVD schemes in capturing sharp discontinuities like shock waves. For this purpose, four classical test problems are considered such as slowly moving shock, gas Riemann problem with high density and pressure ratios, shoc...
