In the reconstruction step, a fourth-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) reconstruction in Legendre basis, written as a convex combination of interpolants based on different stencils, is constructed. In the one-dimensional case, the new fourth-order reconstruction is based on a four-point stencil. The most important subject is that one of these interpolation polynomials is taken as a quadratic polynomial, and the linear weights of the symmetric and convex combination are set as to get fourth-order accuracy in smooth areas. Following the methodology of the traditional WENO-Z reconstruction, the non-oscillatory weights is calculated by the linear weights. The accuracy, robustness, and high-resolution properties of the new procedure are shown by extensive numerical examples. SP - 125 EP - 143 AU - Abedian, R.
