HYPERBOLIC SYSTEMS OF CONSERVATION-LAWS, THE WEYL EQUATION, AND MULTIDIMENSIONAL UPWINDING

All linear hyperbolic systems of two conservation laws can be transformed to essentially one prototype system. This system can be identified with the Weyl equation of relativistic quantum mechanics. We derive a wave model for this equation and compare the resulting fluctuation splitting scheme with standard dimensional splitting schemes. (C) 1994 Academic Press, Inc.
