The main contribution of this work is to construct higher than second order accurate total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes which can preserve high accuracy at non-sonic extrema with out induced local oscillations. It is done in the framework of local maximum principle (LMP) and non-conservative formulation. The representative uniformly second order accurate schemes are converted in to their non-conservative form using the ratio of consecutive gradient. These resulting schemes are analyzed for their non-linear LMP/TVD stability bounds using the local maximum principle. Based on the bounds, second order accurate hybrid numerical schemes are constructed using a shock detector. Numerical results are presented to show that such hybrid schemes yield TVD approximation with second or higher order convergence rate for smooth solution with extrema.

A novel procedure is given for choosing smoothest stencil to construct less oscillatory ENO schemes. The procedure is further used to define smoothness parameter in the non-linear weights of new WENO schemes. The main significant features of these new ENO and WENO schemes is that they are less oscillatory and achieve their relevant order of accuracy in the presence of critical points in the exact solution. It is shown theoretically as well as computationally in $L^1$ and $L^\infty$ norm. Moreover, computational results are given to show less oscillatory behavior of the new WENO scheme compared to WENO5-JS and WENO5-Z schemes.
