Abstract

The objective of the present work is to provide a theoretical analysis of the spectral properties of a selection of nonlinear finite difference schemes. The Nonlinear Spectral Analysis (NSA) of Fauconnier and Dick (2011) [6] is applied in order to study the statistical behavior of the modified wavenumber of TVD schemes in combination with five common limiter functions and also the 5th-order WENO scheme, for a large set of synthetic scalar fields with prescribed energy spectrum and random phase. The theoretical observations are verified numerically for the linear propagation of a broadband wave.
