Three-dimensional preliminary results of the MOOD method: a very high-order finite volume method for conservation laws

Abstract

The Multi-dimensional Optimal Order Detection (MOOD) method has been designed by authors in [5] and extended in [7] to reach Very-High-Order of accuracy for systems of Conservation Laws in a Finite Volume (FV) framework on 2D unstructured meshes. In this paper we focus on the extension of this method to 3D unstructured meshes. We present preliminary results for the three-dimensional advection equation which confirm the good behaviour of the MOOD method. More precisely, we show that the scheme yields up to sixth-order accuracy on smooth solutions while preventing oscillations from appearing on discontinuous profiles.
