In this paper, we develop a fully discrete entropy preserving ADER-Discontinuous Galerkin (ADER-DG) method. To obtain this desired result, we equip the space part of the method with entropy correction terms that balance the entropy production in space, inspired by the work of Abgrall. Whereas for the time-discretization we apply the relaxation approach introduced by Ketcheson that allows to modify the timestep to preserve the entropy to machine precision. Up to our knowledge, it is the first time that a provable fully discrete entropy preserving ADER-DG scheme is constructed. We verify our theoretical results with various numerical simulations.

We introduce arbitrary high order WENO finite volume schemes with global fluxes. The global flux includes the integral of the source term, so that it is natural to balance the moving equilibria for this kind of schemes. We show for shallow water equations with bathymetry that we can exactly preserve the discharge for moving steady states. Morover, we can apply a correction to be also well-balanced with respect to the lake at rest steady state. Download paper

In this short paper, we intend to describe one way to construct arbitrarily high order kinetic schemes on regular meshes. The method can be arbitrarily high order in space and time, run at least CFL one, is asymptotic preserving and computationally explicit, i.e., the computational costs are of the same order of a fully explicit scheme. We also introduce a nonlinear stability method that enables to simulate problems with discontinuities, and it does not kill the accuracy for smooth regular solutions. Download paper

Water waves can be approximated with different models. Dispersive-hyperbolic models serve this scope under smallness conditions of nonlinearity and shallowness parameters. The discretization of these models consists often of a hyperbolic system coupled with an elliptic system. In this work we reduce with standard model order reduction techniques the elliptic operator. Finally, we apply some hyperreduction to reduce the whole system. Download paper

In shallow water equations simulations the positivity of water height is a fundamental property to preserve. We use a linearly implicit modified Patankar Deferred Correction method to guarantee its positivity without any restriction on the time step. The rest of the discretization is obtained with a classical WENO5 finite volume method. Download paper

Testing the order of accuracy of (very) high order methods for shallow water (and Euler) equations is a delicate operation and the test cases are the crucial starting point of this operation. We provide a short derivation of vortex-like analytical solutions in 2 dimensions for the shallow water equations (and, hence, Euler equations) that can be used to test the order of accuracy of numerical methods. These solutions have different smoothness in their derivatives (up to arbitrary derivatives) and can be used accordingly to the order of accuracy of the scheme to test. Download paper

We study various properties for a class of positivity-preserving nonlinear schemes (Patankar-type schemes) and we discover two types of issues: oscillations around stady states when the timestep is too large and spurious steady states where some methods get stuck. Download paper
