Simple smoothness indicator WENO-Z scheme for hyperbolic conservation laws [PDF]
, 2019 The advantage of WENO-JS5 scheme [ J. Comput. Phys. 1996] over the WENO-LOC scheme [J. Comput. Phys.1994] is that the WENO-LOC nonlinear weights do not achieve the desired order of convergence in smooth monotone regions and at critical points.
