This work deals with the relation between the numerical solutions of hyperbolic systems of conservation laws and the associated entropy evolution. An analysis of the continuum problem by means of variational calculus clearly emphasizes the consequences of the adopted reconstruction procedure on the

β¦ Synopsis
The numerical solution of conservation laws by minimizing the residuals of an overdetermined set of discrete equations is studied. Previous research has shown that for certain formulations, minimizing the residuals in the (L), norm will yield solutions that resolve discontinuities that are very sharp and correctly placed. In this study, we analyze a previously proposed method that numerically solves the (2 \mathrm{D}) advection equation with discontinuous data. The method is able to resolve the discontinuity over one mesh cell, without generating spurious oscillations. However, we have found that incorrect solutions are generated for some data. This had led us to formulate and prove two theorems concerning these results. We also provide an analysis of the solution procedure, along with suggestions for developing future schemes that are more applicable to a wide range of problems. (C) 1994 Academic Press. Inc.

Discrete geometric conservation laws (DGCLs) govern the geometric parameters of numerical schemes designed for the solution of unsteady flow problems on moving grids. A DGCL requires that these geometric parameters, which include among others grid positions and velocities, be computed so that the co
