Abstract
The Generalized Riemann Problem (GRP) method has been developed recently as a high resolution second order numerical scheme for the solution of time-dependent one-dimensional inviscid compressible flows (with variable cross section). The paper presents a brief outline of the method and its extension to the multi-material case, followed by two examples: (a) the resolution of a discontinuity in a planar shock-tube; (b) the complex wave pattern following the explosion of a pressurized Helium sphere into air.
