Efficient implementation of essentially non-oscillatory shock capturing schemes

In the computation of discontinuous solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws, TVD (total-variation-diminishing), TVB (total-variation-bounded) and the recently developed ENO (essentially non-oscillatory) schemes have proven to be very useful. In this paper two improvements are discussed: a simple TVD Runge-Kutta type time discretization, and an ENO construction procedure based on fluxes rather than on cell averages. These improvements simplify the schemes considerably -- especially for multi-dimensional problems or problems with forcing terms. Preliminary numerical results are also given.
