A highly efficient finite volume method with a diffusion control parameter for hyperbolic problems

This article proposes a highly accurate and conservative method for hyperbolic systems using the finite volume approach. This innovative scheme constructs the intermediate states at the interfaces of the control volumes using the method of characteristics. The approach is simple to implement, generates entropic solutions, and avoids solving Riemann problems. A diffusion control parameter is introduced to increase the accuracy of the scheme. Numerical examples are presented for the Euler equation for an ideal gas. The results demonstrate the method's ability to capture contact discontinuity and shock wave profiles with high accuracy and low cost as well as its robustness.

Homogeneous incompressible Bingham viscoplastic as a limit of bi-viscosity fluids

In this paper, the existence of a weak solution for homogeneous incompressible Bingham fluid is investigated. The rheology of such a fluid is defined by a yield stress $τ_y$ and a discontinuous stress-strain law. This non-Newtonian fluid behaves like a solid at low stresses and like a non-linear fluid above the yield stress. In this work we propose to build a weak solution for Navier stokes Bingham equations using a bi-viscosity fluid as an approximation, in particular, we proved that the bi-viscosity tensor converges weakly to the Bingham tensor.
