Abstract

We design finite volume schemes for two dimensional parabolic degenerate systems by using a kinetic, formally BGK, approach. The hyperbolic and parabolic parts are not splitted and the schemes are Riemann solver free. Moreover the spatial discretization can be written analytically, so that the implementation is easy. Some numerical tests are presented.
