Abstract: Abstract We study relaxation schemes for conservation laws with discontinuous coefficients, and compare these numerically with an Engquist-Osher type scheme and with a front tracking method. If the coefficients are of bounded variation, the first order relaxation scheme, the Engquist-Osher scheme, and the front tracking method converge to a weak solution.
