  • Abstract

We proposed a piecewise quadratic reconstruction method in multiple dimensions, which is in an integrated style, for finite volume schemes to scalar conservation laws. This integrated quadratic reconstruction is parameter-free and applicable on flexible grids. We show that the finite volume schemes with the new reconstruction satisfy a local maximum principle with properly setup on time step length. Numerical examples are presented to show that the proposed scheme attains a third-order accuracy for smooth solutions in both 2D and 3D cases. It is indicated by numerical results that the local maximum principle is helpful to prevent overshoots in numerical solutions.
