Abstract

A fully adaptive finite volume multiresolution scheme for one‐dimensional strongly degenerate parabolic equations with discontinuous flux modelling an extended clarifier‐thickener, is presented. The numerical scheme is based on a finite volume discretization using the approximation of Engquist‐Osher for the flux and explicit time stepping. Cell averages multiresolution scheme speeds up CPU time and memory requirements. A particular feature of our scheme is the storage of the multiresolution representation of the solution in a dynamic graded tree.
