Abstract

A class of high-order reconstruction methods based on logarithmic functions is presented. Inspired by Marquina's hyperbolic method, we introduce a double logarithmic ansatz of fifth order of accuracy. Low variation is guaranteed by the ansatz and (slope-) limiting is avoided. The method can reconstruct smooth extrema without order reduction. Fifth order of convergence is verified in a numerical experiment governed by the nonlinear Euler system. Numerical experiments, including the Osher-Shu shock/acoustic interaction, are presented.
