Abstract

In this paper we make further numerical experiments assessing an accuracy degeneracy phenomena reported by A. Rogerson and E. Meiburg (this issue, 1990). We also propose a modified ENO scheme, which recovers the correct order of accuracy for all the test problems with smooth initial conditions and gives results comparable to the original ENO schemes for discontinuous problems.
