Lax-Wendroff order of accuracy on Burgers equation
Statement of the problem
Is it possible to achieve the second order of convergence (OOC)
of Lax-Wendroff scheme applied to solve
inviscid Burgers equations with discontinuous
initial data? If no, then how to achieve OOC of 2nd order in quasilinear…
