Review text

The authors study the first order errors downstream the shocks, which have been detected in computations with higher order shock-capturing schemes. The aim of the paper is to show that these first order errors can be studied using the matched asymptotic analysis of the modified equation. The analysis can be used to construct methods with second order accuracy. In the paper time-dependent hyperbolic problems are considered and it is assumed that the numerical solution can be modeled by a slightly viscous equation, a so-called modified equation. In the shock layer, a matrix-valued viscosity coefficient of order \(O(h)\) is constructed. The authors show using a series of numerical experiments that by this construction first order errors downstream the shock are eliminated.
